Flipped Classrooms are a creative new instructional method where students do readings and watch lectures at home and then utilize their class period to work on projects, activities, and assignments with their teacher. This helps support students by allowing for more practice time in order to make sure the students really grasp the material. It also makes a class more interesting for your students because with this sort of classroom you can assign more creative group projects that they can work on in class.
Khan Academy has instructional and educational videos for all of their lessons that could be used in such a flipped classroom.
I've done non-linear powerpoints before, as well as those for information dissemination, and didn't really learn anything new. My history with powerpoint is more of an exception than a rule. Something I didn't like was that powerpoint changed the color of the hyperlinks orange and would not let me change it to any other color. Something I would potentially change would be adding a black outline to the text in my Information Dissemination powerpoint as it could be a bit difficult to read.
