Did you know that the average person retains only about 5% of the information they hear during a lecture?

The NTL Institute did some research on information retention and came up with the following conclusion:

For maximum retention discussion groups, practice by doing, and teaching others is far superior to what the traditional school system is doing like lectures, audiovisual presentations, and demonstrations.

Partly because of that, some schools have adopted the flipped classroom concept. As a learner, you:

1. study the material at home at a pace that suits your learning needs.
2. regroup in the classroom for discussions and hands-on workshops. Teachers mentors students.
3. further your knowledge back at home with all the insights from their class/group discussions.
