How A Flipped Classroom Actually Works [Interview]
What happens when the students have more control in the classroom? Flipped classrooms are being tested out around the world and we’ve featured a few examples in case you wanted to see who is flippin’ out. Until now, we didn’t have an in-depth look at the effects of a flipped classroom or answers to the big questions it raises. Thanks to Susan Murphy of Algonquin College (check out her awesome blog suzemuse.com !) She used the flipped classroom model for her First Year Video and Audio Production class which is part of the Interactive Multimedia Developer program. What inspired you to use the flipped classroom model? One of the big challenges I was having in my video production class was teaching the required software (Adobe Premiere Pro). So, when I was teaching the software to the class using the conventional method (in-class lecture and demonstration), I had students who didn’t get it at all, students who were bored, and students who were kind of able to follow along.
7 Steps To Flipped Professional Development
7 Steps To Flipped Professional Development by Laura Conley first appeared on gettingsmart.com Arriving home from San Diego and having just attended the ISTE (International Society of Technology in Education) conference I was scheduled to facilitate an all-day professional development for our district. I was excited to share as much of the conference as possible in a day without overwhelming everyone. From past experience I knew a lot of time was wasted creating accounts and log-ins at the beginning of each professional development which allowed many participants to get off task and off focus from the start. With this in mind, I decided it would be good for everyone to have the information ahead of time so they would know what to expect. I created what looked like a regular agenda with a few noticeable improvements. All of the preparation paid off! 7 Steps To Flipped Professional Development After reflecting on what worked well and what didn’t work as well it was time to get busy. 1. 2.

Five Questions to Ask Before Flipping a Lesson
The best lecturers are more than content-deliverers. They captivate their audiences, allow the lecture to evolve in response to the reactions of the audience, and ultimately put on a show that is greater than the sum of its parts. This theater is necessary to excite students about content that does not inspire excitement on its own. In that spirit, here are the five questions I ask myself when I design a flipped lesson or unit: 1) Why am I lecturing? It’s essential to determine what it is exactly that I know and can offer the students that they couldn’t otherwise get from a book or the internet. 2) What are students doing while watching the lecture? Good lectures are never passive experiences for the audience. 3) Would I watch this? I tried four or five different iTunes U classes this summer before I settled on the programming class I wanted to take. 4) Why do the kids need to understand this idea or skill? Once you’ve answered these questions, more technical considerations arise:

5 Digital Tools For The Flipped Classroom
Hafsa Wajeeh, dtopgadgets Have you “Flipped your classroom” yet? The flipped classroom is a useful technique that has moved lectures out of the class, and onto digital media. In doing so, teachers can drastically increase interaction time with their students. It also creates two unique learning environments instead of just one, and opens up the opportunity for students to ask questions, solve problems, and use technology in a meaningful way. A number of tools are available that can be used to record lectures, including YouTube, Edmodo, Schoology, and Moodle. 1. The first tool is Panopto. If you are a teacher and you are using Panopto, you don’t have to worry about uploading your lectures because it is integrated to a Course Management System, Canvas. Panopto is as useful for students as it is for teachers. 2. Tegrity is another great tool that is used for flipping the class. To use Tegrity, you don’t have to change your teaching style. 3. 4. 5.

The Foundations of Flipping
Best Practices for Teaching Today "Kids don't show up to learn new stuff. They show up to apply the things they've learned at home." Aaron Sams As a new teacher, I often seek advice from other mentors. Research indicates that students learn best by doing (the higher levels of Bloom's Taxonomy: applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating). Become the Guide on the Side - not the Sage on the Stage What is The Flipped Classroom? I've learned from many great teachers before me that the idea of a flipped classroom is nothing new. Defined: The flipped classroom is an instructional method used to engage students at home through the use of video in effort to enhance the classroom experience by a more hands-on approach to learning. Examples of The Flipped Classroom: When I reflect back upon the classes I enjoyed the most in high school, two classes immediately come to mind: my elective debate class and my junior year American History class.
