This University Business Leadership Tech presentation talks about "flipping" the classroom but also incorporates some aspects of TBL, clickers and podcasting. These are the three innovations that have transformed my teaching. I like that they teach the method. They also emphasize planning and commitment. No sure How I feel about competition but if designed right I see how engaging it could be. Curious about your thoughts. http://ubtechconference.com/session/flipping-out-over-competition -- Herb Coleman, Ph.D Dir.

But you'd have to buy out the entire cabin. And the first class flight attendant.* Saito*: I bought the airline.....It seemed neater."
