The Board of Education in this city has decided to adopt a
new teaching method called "flip teaching" at its public elementary
and junior high schools, whereby all students will be provided with tablet
computers to prepare for classes before they come to school.
The plan, which the education board revealed this past
September, aims to take classrooms directly into students' homes through videos
saved on their computers. Takeo city is the first municipality in the country
to fully employ such a teaching method, which is slated to be introduced at all
of its 16 public elementary and junior high schools.
