Flipped Classroom Seminar

The Department of Business Administration at The Bhawanipur Education Society College successfully organised a Flipped Classroom Seminar on 20th September, 2025. The event was held in Room 322 (3^rd floor) and engaged an audience of over 60 people.

The seminar was anchored by Aaliah Afreen (Semester I) who welcomed the guests to the gathering and introduced the concept of the flipped classroom. She further requested Professor Dr Tridib Sengupta, the BBA coordinator, to deliver the welcome address.

Following Dr Sengupta’s address, Professor Ananya Ghosh was invited to explain the pedagogical scaffolding behind the initiative. As the conductor of the event, she laid out the importance of democratizing the classroom space, and how innovative teaching pedagogy aids the very idea. She also chalked out the different sections of the event for the guests’ ease.

With this, the flipped classroom seminar officially began. Four undergraduate students taught their peers for a two-hour long session and designed activities to enhance their English language skills. Lohith Datta Arangi (Semester I) designed a translation activity based on popular Bollywood dialogues. Mohammed Ismail Lokhandwala (Semester I) followed Lohith, and prepared an improve exercise through reimagining alternate endings of movies. After that, Simran Bag (Semester I) discussed the dialogue writing process of the previously discussed movies, and engaged the participants to develop their own alternate endings in groups. Finally, Yuvraj Purohit (Semseter I) conducted an enactment exercise, where each group enacted their scenes.

After the session, Professor Ghosh was requested to deliver the closing address. Then, Aaliah delivered a vote of thanks to all the participants for their eager participation, patience, and dedication.

The event was curated by Professor Ananya Ghosh. The seminar gave first year undergraduate students the opportunity to try something new. They developed their research skills, and public speaking skills.
