The flipped classroom...

Pedagogical model in which the the typical lecture or an element of the content and homework elements are reversed

Short videos

In-class is spent on investigations, differentiated practice, projects, discussions

Videos: created by teacher or selected from online sources

Class time becomes a workshop: teachers are coaches inquiring inquiry and collaboration

Significance and PowerTraditional delivery of content: students try to

capture what is being said at the moment the speaker is presenting the content.

In the Flipped Learning environment...

The pace is under the control of the student: stop, replay, reflect

Students are often more likely to share their questions and thinking.

The student can select the time and location of learning.

Questions, misconceptions, and extensions are generated through follow up activities (WSQCCPIs; blogging)

Places more responsibility on the students.

ChallengesCareful preparation

Recording content takes training and time.

Video content and in-class investigations must be integrated.

Technology needs

Face to face time (more of an issue

in secondary)

PlanningWhat do students need to learn?

Identify learning objectives.

Lower level learning objectives (Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy and DOK)...understand, define, relate,

label...online videosHigher level learning...apply, build,

develop,organize,analyze, evaluate...in class investigations

Planning the Video

Teacher created video or online source

Questions

Flippable Moment

The moment when the teacher stops “talking at” the learners

The moment when the work is flipped to the learners

The moment when the learner is allowed to struggle, ask questions, solve problems, and work through the process with the guidance and

facilitation of the teacher

Considering Flipping...What is

next?Start small.

Begin with an existing, reliable video.

Select a content area or learning objective that lends itself to being flipped.

Seek feedback from your students: what worked? what didn’t?

Collaborate!

Accountability

Students Love Flipping!
