This episode features four studies on flipped mathematics instruction that would have been shared at the AERA annual meeting in April 2020. This is the order in which you will hear their voices:

• JP Han & Ruby Ellis. University of Missouri. "Patterns in empirical studies of flipped mathematics instruction: A literature review."
• Jessica Kamuru & Wenmin Zhao. University of Missouri."Patterns in Algebra 1 classes implementing flipped instruction: An observational study."
• Jeremy Strayer. Middle Tennessee State University."Characterizations of flipped instruction: Mathematics teaching practices and teachers' enactment zones."
• Darryl Yong. Harvey Mudd College. "The primary affordance of flipped instruction might be more opportunities for active in-class engagement."

There is also an open discussion with Jeff Choppin and Zandra de Araujo taking part along with the authors.
