Once you have selected the class to flip, pull together the materials associated with that class (e.g. pre-class readings, lecture slides & notes, learning activity, and assignments associated with this material). Start with what you have and as you gain experience then explore and expand what you do inside and outside of class to help students learn.

Organize the material you have gathered and organize it into three piles according to what students currently experience before, during, and after class. The crux of the Flipped model is to move the application-oriented "homework" into the classroom and to move the "lecture" to before class. We will walk you through each phase of the model, but first take what you have and see how it might be reorganized to fit this model. Here are a few questions to get you started in this process:

What do I want my students to know and be able to do as result of completing this sequence of the course? How does it fit into the bigger picture of the unit and course?
What part of the current "homework assignment" could be moved inside of class to help students practice applying the content? or What in-class learning activity is being rushed through because there is currently not enough time to do it well?
What practice do students need inside of class to prepare them for the larger assignment tht will be completed after-class? Will students make the connection between what is happening inside of class and the assignment they are working on after class?
What content do students need to know before class to successfully engage in the learning activity during class?

The after-class portion may consist of a wide variety of activties including completing the work started in class or reading deeper about the topic or working together on a larger assignment that externds several class periods or practiciing on one's own. Again if you zoom out from this image, you would see that the after-class portion from one class occurs at the same time as before-class for the next class. This model is designed to help you organize your students learning and therefore is simplifying a more complex reality.
