The Reverse of Homework

I'm liking this new phrase floating around: "The Reverse of Homework".

What does it mean? Pretty simple: the old paradigm was you lecture and model activity in class, then you send your students home to do it on their own.

But what folks are doing now is recording the lectures (including the application modelling), and having the students view those outside of class. Then students come into class to do their work, with your expert assistance.
