This website is designed for students of all ages to learn.
It is the brainchild of Jonathan Bergmann & Aaron Sams in Woodland Park Colorado.
They have become known around the world as the first teachers to flip the classroom. In the flipped classroom, the students watch video lessons made by their teachers and then use class time to do more hands-on activities and work with their teacher on difficult topics.
