Flipping an Operations Management Course Using Clickers

My primary focus was to redesign my course to offer a "flipped class" to my audience. In the process the learners will watch the weekly topic related videos, watch power point slides, read articles related to the topic on line, on their own time, finally take an online quiz on the weekly topic before they came to class. The plan is to spend less time lecturing, do more in class activities such is group work, discussion on topics, use more technology and thus allow more flexibility to my students. I am anticipating that in this way students would come more prepared to classroom and will be open to participate in the critical thinking and the process should allow them to enhance their problem solving skills. If I reduce class lecture time and significantly increasing student interaction, I strongly believe that students of this generation would be more engaged, be interested in the weekly topic and enhance and meet the over all the students learning outcome.
