1. Have you considered your philosophy in Flipping your Classroom? Have you considered your purposes in embracing this ideology?
2. Have you chosen a lesson that you are going to flip using Sophia.org as the platform? Have you considered how flipping classroom theory is going to affect your lesson planning and delivery for that specific lesson?
Sounds interesting... How can it be effectively used in teaching students with disabilities?
It is excellent for enrichment and remediation for extra help in a subject matter. Also, case managers and paras can have full access to the instruction to better aide the students they work with. Contact me and I can share some examples with you via email.
What are some ways this model can be utilized to teach pre-k students who may not be advanced enough to utilize computers at home without the help of a dedicated parent?
How can I use this model to teach basketball players or even a small business?
This would actually lend itself quite well to coaching since sports are such hands on/skill based activities. As a former college and high school athlete and current table tennis player I utilize and watch video often to try and enhance my skills. I don't know what age level you coach but here could be one example: Let's say you are working on something like a between the legs dribble; a skill that can be easily practiced at home with little space in one spot. You could create a 5 minute demo/explanation about how to perform that skill with demonstration from yourself and I'd recommend having a player show it as well. Charge them with watching and studying the video before the next practice and right at the beginning have them demonstrate the skill, in this situation the between the legs dribble. Let's say in the video they have to do it 6 consecutive times (again this will vary depending on the age group) and if they don't get it right or you noticed they slacked off and didn't watch, then it's time to do some sprints. Then from there build into your practice from there. So this model could be a good way for you to start out practice with basic to advanced skill assessment of your athletes and then obviously showing them the importance of paying attention and being in shape if they don't listen.
What about coaches that try to teach different plays; will this model be assesible in that arena?
How might you use this as a professional development model in a school district?
My district uses it for safety, mental health, and some of the other requirements that teachers need to essentially sit through on workshop days where the time could be used more constructively. Also, using the model as is (this flipped certification) has been used by full districts for training. They submit to the admin upon completion.
I like they idea of the WSQ with the video. Are there any other alternatives that the rest of you endorse?
I have kids use this for prelabs in my science class. Demonstrate what I want them to do and answer a few questions on the google form. They come in not afraid of equipment. I could see doing this for any type of performance activity where manipulatives might be used.
How can I use the Flipped classroom model in a narrative writing lesson?
What about students whom do not have internet access@ home? What are some accomodations? Im excited to do this!
Hi Dave - I teach at a Title I school in the south side of Atlanta. The vast majority of my students do not have computer access at home. However, many of my students do have prepaid cell phones and through their mobile YouTube apps, they have been able to access my videos. I am not sure what grade level you teach, but for my high school students, I saw this as an opportunity to teach a life lesson. I am frank with my students in telling them that this (their lack of internet access) is only one obstacle of many that they will face on their arduous path to college graduation. I challenged them to not let their socioeconomic status determine their success by finding a way to access the internet either through a friend's cell phone, the school library, the public library, etc. Surprisingly, my students have responded very well to this challenge. Also, I have made myself - and my laptop- more accessible to them outside of class time.
I hope this helps.
Hi Dave, If students don't have internet access but have a computer, you can lend them a flash drive to copy the videos onto the computer once a chapter. If they don't have a computer at all, you can burn DVDs for them (I use iDVD).
I'm excited about doing this with a few lessons that my ELL Inclusion kiddos struggle with. Has anyone done flipped lessons as an inclusion teacher?
"This is great! I am eagerly anticipating implementing these concepts in the college courses I teach. I imagine some students and faculty might wonder what I'm up to because it can be difficult to stray from the way things have "always been done", but this is truly cutting edge education! Great concept and excellent tutorials!"
Find your perfect match. We have more great tutorials that teach this concept.
Got it
"This is a very good reference for using the flipped classroom. I have replayed this several times. Very good job,"
