Reimagining higher education: building the Informal Sofa Network - a flipped approach to widening participation student engagement

Research Output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding Chapter Peer-review

Abstract

While the flipped classroom model is expected to enhance the learning experience in the social sciences, its implementation requires careful consideration of various factors. Educators must critically evaluate whether flipped learning is consistent with their environment and student demographics, ensuring that it complements, rather than replaces, effective instructional practices. This chapter Reimagining Higher Education - Building the informal ‘Sofa Network’ - a flipped approach to teaching and learning, will explore how a new approach and proposed model based in ‘informal - unstructured learning opportunity’ could be adapted to enhance widening participation student experience and engagement.
