Tutor Group Course
A new way to learn vital skills
EtonX Tutor Group courses allow students to develop 21st-century skills in small groups of up to 8 students. We use classes and self-study course content.
In the virtual classroom students take part in discussions, role plays and polls and use collaboration tools such as shared documents. In preparation for class each week, they follow a self-study programme and undertake peer learning tasks.
The flipped classroom
Before | During | After |
Students complete self-study tasks to prepare them to participate in the virtual classroom | Students meet their classmates and tutor in the virtual classroom to discuss key concepts and practise the techniques that they have learnt. | Students check their understanding and reflect on their learning. |
Student meet every week in the virtual classroom with the same group of students for the duration of their course. Cohorts can be:
Open - students will learn with peers from around the world and/or from other institutions.
Closed - students will learn alongside others from the same institution.
