This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Dr. Stoltzfus talks about how, in an time period with many online distractions, the way students are taught hasn't kept up. Even with modern technology, the way students are taught is archaic, so he "flipped his classroom."

Dr. Matthew W. Stoltzfus is an accomplished chemistry lecturer at The Ohio State University, where he has taught general and advanced inorganic chemistry. He implements the "flipping the classroom" lecture approach, which has garnered media attention from Apple, NPR, ESPN, and Inside Higher Education.

Dr. Stoltzfus was an inaugural recipient of the Provost's Award for Distinguished Teaching by a Lecturer; is recognized as an Apple Distinguished Educator; is a contributing author of the 13th Edition of "Chemistry the Central Science" textbook, and has an iTunesU General Chemistry course with a global enrollment of more than 137,000 students. He also serves as an advisor and mentor for many organizations at OSU.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
