Applying an eBook Tool with Lecturing Function and a Game-Based Student Response System in Flipped Classroom for a Seminar Course

Abstract

The paper presents a teaching model using an ebook tool with lecturing function and a game-based student response system in flipped classroom for a seminar course for graduate students. The ebook tool with lecturing function helps presenters (students) to easily display their multimedia materials by dual-codes mode and to interact their presentation with students (audience) by handwriting, a screen including video and powerpoint slides, two-pages swapping, etc. The Game-based Student Response System is utilized in the teaching model to increase more interactions among presenter and audience by answering questions using mobile devices in a game-like fashion.
