Millennial students are driving change in learning environments around the world. Unlike previous generations, Millennials’ constant exposure to the Internet and other digital media has shaped how they receive information and learn. In order to adapt to Millennials’ learning preferences, educators are adapting to using different technology to engage with today’s students. This paper discusses how we flip hybrid classes and use free technology that is independent of the learning management system to build, manage and deliver content to students, while keeping them engaged inside and outside the classroom.
