[The upside-down classroom, an inspiring innovation].

Abstract

A pedagogical innovation has a power that academic teaching methods do not have. It can go beyond the walls of the classroom to inspire the educational community, which is itself a learner. The flipped classroom, a pedagogy based on collaboration between students, is one such example. This article explores the concept of peer learning (peeragogy) in an originally lecture-based course, detailing its principles and how it works. It highlights how this method can also enrich teachers' teaching practices and encourage them to innovate in order to encourage their learners' involvement and autonomy in a collaborative setting.
