How do you conduct a "flipped" classroom when you have students who do not have technology at home?
I will provide dvds for students who can access those. Otherwise, I plan on having a few laptops available for students to watch the videos either before school or before class (depending on when their class is).
I have also heard to burn a dvd to play on a dvd player if a computer is not available.
I think you can ask school managament to arrange a timetable for students who don't have technology at home to use computer labs at school.
I have plenty of ideas/resources for the "at home" part of flipping lessons... as a history teacher it is easy to record and post lectures, powerpoints, etc. for content delivery at home.
Does anyone know where I might be able to find activities for the "at school" part of flipping lessons? I am looking for engaging activities for high school world history.
My best suggestion is to check out flipped-history.com and connect with the educators who blog there. You can also tweet out to the hashtag #flipclass and collaborate with other world history teachers. Hope that helps!
There are many "whiteboarding" apps that are similar to screen recording. Check out Doceri, Educreations, ShowMe, Explain Everything, or Screenchomp.
Check out screenflow for Mac. It's only $99 one time fee and has all the bells and whistles provided in camtasia and the like.
How do you conduct a "flipped" classroom when you have students who do not have technology at home?
I agree with John. Flash drive / sd card with vid on it is the easiest and most universal as it can be played on a computer, phone, LCD tv and most cable set top boxes like Uverse or Comcast.
Otherwise, have a dedicated station set up in your classroom or LMC with the videos for the week.
Hi Jean,
If students do not have internet at home but they have a computer, they can borrow a flash drive to copy the videos onto their computer. If they don't even have a computer, you can burn DVDs for them (I use iDVD). If none of those options work, then what about the school library or computer labs?
The majority of my students do view the lessons at home, but I still have those that don't. The question I have come to ask is "What's wrong with having them watch it at school, even at the beginning of class?". Flipped learning has really become defined to be "using video to remove direct instruction from the 'group learning space' to the 'individual learning space' where students can watch at their own pace. If that happens to be at school for whatever reason, they are still getting the benefits of receiving the instruction at their own pace. Is it ideal for them to miss out on the class activities? No...but since the videos are short they don't miss out on the whole class. Just some thoughts that I have learned over the last year :)
How do you manage students who refuse to view flipped lessons at home on their own time?
Sure, I get those questions a lot - info is on my FAQ page here http://flippingwithkirch.blogspot.com/p/faq.html
I'm having a lot of trouble finding exact information on how to use Google Forms for "WIsking". Anyone with some specific instructions?
Students can handwrite their answers to the WSQ in a notebook; I just choose to have them submit it electronically for organization and paper-saving purposes. If you haven't ever created a google form, there are tons of tutorials out there - hopefully Carolyn's link was helpful.
I have a screencast explaining how to embed these. Check out http://www.sophia.org/creating-a-tutorial-embedding-a-googledoc-tutorial?playlist=2-tutorials-advanced-options There are a series of tutorials for learning. For more, join group 1897f2.
