Abstract
When first asked to teach a flipped classroom, I was excited and apprehensive at the same time. I knew I always wanted to try it but I wasn’t sure what the best practices were nor which parts of the class should be flipped and which shouldn’t. I soon found out there is a lot more to flipping a classroom, but the results can be rewarding. In this paper, I will describe how I flipped a College Algebra class with a specific focus for nursing students. In addition, valuable ideas and best practices on how to effectively flip a class are presented.
