“…Repeated use of this feature may help students acquire more effective reading skills by showing them how to appropriately focus their attention and use their textbooks to locate information more effectively, but more importantly, it shows students how useful their textbooks can be. Effective reading skills and utilization of texts may help students transition into independent learners .

Students who lack academic maturity can sometimes feel overwhelmed in a fully flipped classroom. Here an alternative, the Semi-Flipped method, is discussed. Rural students, who face unique challenges in transitioning from high school learning to collegelevel learning, can particularly profit from the use of the Semi-Flipped method in the General Chemistry classroom. This method brings together preparation before class, active learning in class, and a supportive homework system, and it appears to have significant benefits both for students and for the instructor.
