The Flipped Classroom

The flipped classroom is a great idea in theory.  Students get the notes at night and then come to school and do the work.  But in a society where parent involvement and homework are rarely important, it seems as though this would not work. This idea will work with the motivated but I do not see it helping our at risk students.  Our motivated students are fine, our educational system works well for them.  Until we decide as a society that education is important for our children, the no new method will work better than the last.
