how flipping your classroom can improve instruction
DESCRIPTION
Flipping a classroom is a type of blended learning that allows instructors more time to interact with their students by placing traditional classroom activity, such as lectures, outside of class time. Watching lectures in class leaves class time for hands-on activities, small group work, and one-on-one interactions between professor and student. Flipping can be done through LMS forums, Khan Academy, lecture capture software, VoiceThread, etc. This presentation will discuss benefits of the flipped classroom model, provide ideas and best practices for successful classroom flipping, and give participants an opportunity to start planning how to flip their own classes.TRANSCRIPT

What is flipping a class?
“Flipping” a class is a type of blended learning designed to give instructors more one-on-one time with their students.
Flipped classes move activities normally done in class (lecture, textbook activities) and assign them as homework.
Class time is then spent on active learning activities.

Why I tried flipping
I teach Developmental English at a community college. High attrition rate High failure rate
Looking to engage students Improve student learning Improve student learning rate Create “more” class time to
accomplish what we need to do

So what do we do in class? Group work
Small group discussion Group essay writing Revision of work
Answer questions What do you wonder? What are you unsure of after
trying…? Practice applying concepts

Challenges
Takes a lot of time, especially at the beginning (like moving a f2f class OL)
Requires (or seems to) more time of students outside of class
What if they don’t do their homework?
Doesn’t it reinforce “lecturing”? Technology access limitations of
students

Choosing what to flip Start small. Start where you feel comfortable.
If you already record lectures, make them available online.
Give an assessment of understanding before discussing topic in class.
In addition to having students answer questions on their reading, have them ask questions.
Have students write summaries or reactions to readings and assignments.

Steps to get started
You don’t have to flip everything! Decide what you want to
accomplish Take a look at your syllabus and
assignments – decide what would work outside the classroom
Choose one area to flip to get started
Have your students help find materials (e.g. videos, websites)
Find a mentor

Methods of Flipped Delivery LMS
Blackboard Moodle
Edmodo Class Wiki Google Apps Ning (or Grou.ps) The key is to have a place for 2-
way interaction online.
