Abstract: PUBH 800 is a course offered by the School of Public Health, University of Saskatchewan. Previous offerings of this course were traditionally lecture-based. However, students often struggled with the application of theory to solve practical and applied problems in the class. Therefore, the researchers decided to explore the efficacy of a concept known as "the flipped classroom". The instructor’s lectures were pre-recorded and made available to students for online viewing before the class met. In-class, the instructor led a brief lecture review, problem-solving tutorials, and gave a weekly quiz (with immediate feedback). Students also gave group presentations. The research was conducted with 4 class groupings over 2 terms. Surveys were administered to students at 3 points and interviews conducted with the course TA’s. This presentation and paper will explore the themes and findings of the student’s perspectives on the flipped classroom approach and suggest “lessons learned”.
