    Teaching methods and instruction

    The teaching method in this course is the flipped classroom. The Flipped Classroom is an approach where traditional learning structures are reversed. Instead of receiving lectures in class, students first study course materials, such as videos, readings, or presentations, before class. Classroom time is then used for interactive activities like discussions, problem-solving, or group work, allowing for deeper understanding.
