7. Educational Technology tools, Web 2.0 technologies and changing methods of delivery and instruction
engage the student in collaborative and active learning processes. The flipped studio means
participation through interactive learning strategies in and out of studio to improve the development of
dialogue and discourse. The student’s visual voice and sense of self in practice is thus enhanced as is
the learning environment.
Best teaching practice concentrates on new ways of seeing and doing through a process of practice
that enhances deeper learning through active participation, collaboration and engagement within a
studio setting.
Being a participant and learner in a blended learning environment[ face to face] sessions mean more
higher order conceptual and critical thinking takes place which influences the creation of highly
developed and thought through work. This type of learning environment increases activity through
participation and dialogue discourse emerges that ultimately provides opportunities for discovery and
[new] knowledge production through the practice of making.
Learning in a flipped studio requires engaging in self determined learning of course content before
studio sessions, meaning that she/he is prepared and ready to engage in studio practice activities.
Ultimately everybody, facilitator included is more organised and engaged, thus more thinking and doing
takes place.
Best teaching practice activities make best use of students abilities and time and are reflective of the
changing relationships in knowledge production and reception of creative practice as a
learning/knowledge building tool that creates meaning within and beyond the academy.
