What is Flipped Learning?

Flip learning is a new way of learning that turns around the usual way we study. Instead of doing class activities in school, we do them at home, and homework is done in the classroom. The goal is to get more students involved in discussions. In flip learning, students do research on their own or complete assigned tasks, and then they talk with the teacher or ask questions during class. This approach gives students the freedom to choose where they want to study.

 Flipped Learning: Existenlism

Existentialism: 

Existentialism is a philosophical perspective that highlights the importance of the individual as a free and responsible agent shaping their own growth through acts of the will.

•The thoughts I like most:

Vedio -1

In the very first vedio I am impressed by this thought...

It sounds like the video provided a comprehensive introduction to Existentialism, highlighting key aspects such as freedom, passion, and individuality. Existentialism indeed emerged in the aftermath of war, grappling with the perceived meaninglessness of life and the concept of absurdity.

Vedio -2

In the second video i am impressed by this thought.

"An elegant suicide is the ultimate work of art".

The statement suggests a provocative perspective, implying that a carefully planned suicide is viewed as a refined and intricate form of artistic expression. 'Suicide is an individual act '-camus

Vedio -3

In the third vedio i am impressed by this thoughts

Any one is not fulfill that commited suicide

1.A total obsence of hope

2.A continmal rejection

3.conscious dissatisfaction

' Reason is useless and there is nothing beyond reason'

Vedio -4

In the forth video I am impressed by this thought

“Whom do they hate most? Him who breaks up their tables of values, the breaker, the lawbreaker. He, however, is the creator.”

-Nietzsche

Nietzsche's quote highlights that those who disrupt established values and laws are often the most hated, yet paradoxically, they are the ones who create new paradigms and possibilities

Vedio -5

In the fifth video I am impressed by this thought.

 You are responsible for your every velue &choice ,because that's happen reason of your discussion

"Become who you are” – Nietzsche

Vedio -6

 In the sixth video I am impressed by this thought.

The video clarifies that Existentialism and Nihilism differ and highlights that every existentialist has taken a stand against nihilism in some form or another.

Vedio -7

In the seventh vedio i am impressed by this thought.

"The Human condition "

Three types of questions like this

 •why am I here?

• what does it mean to human?

• How should I live my life?

This video enlightened me with a new thought - Religion has been always giving the answers of life but we are humans we don't need answers from divine perspective but from human perspective ‘Human, all too human” - Nietzsche

Vedio -8

In the eighth vedio I am impressed by this thought.

This cool video teaches little kids about existentialism and Nietzsche. It's a big effort because they talk about individuality and making choices. Nietzsche's Übermensch idea says it's important to decide things on your own

Vedio -9

In the ninth vedio I am like this thought.

Vedio -10

In the 10th vedio i am like this thoughts

Learning outcome :

In this flipped learning activity, I noticed that as a student, we don't rely on the teacher for easy answers. Instead, we enjoy figuring out things ourselves, making the learning experience more interesting. Also, I knew a bit about the theory beforehand, but when it became a task, it became exciting to delve deeper into a specific topic, like Existentialism

Ask Questions:

1. In the Vedio-2, What implications does the statement about elegant suicide carry, and how does it align with Camus' perspective on suicide being an individual act?

2. Vedio-2, What is absurd reasoning?

3. In the Vedio-3, Do the expressions "A total absence of hope" and "There is no place for hope" imply a desire for escapism or contemplation of suicide?

4. In the Vedio-4, How does Existentialism explore the notion of values dictated by others?

5.In the vedio-5, In what ways does Existentialism's emphasis on becoming one's authentic self navigate beyond the superficial aspects of self-love linked to narcissism, contributing to a more profound existential exploration?
