Abstract: Anatomy is a vast subject which requires memorization and retention of the subject in the pre-clinical stage. The same knowledge has to be applied in understanding in problem solving in the ensuing clinical stages. Millennium students are well versed with technology. Innovative teaching methods have also evolved making use of the technology and connectivity. One innovative teaching methodology of the recent times has shown to have better results in improving the learning and higher levels of cognition in comparison to the traditional mode of teaching. Flipped classroom method and its positive results were seen when employed on a small group demonstration. The enhanced learning shown by the Flipped classroom technology has prompted me to try the same on a large group lecture taking into view the problems involved in implementing the same to a small group.
