Flipped Classroom Blended Learning and Assessment @DaretoChem @BrdCmpbll

[|__What questions do you have about the Flipped Classroom model?__]

@DaretoChem: Flipping in HS Chemistry Classes
 * heterogenous mixture of honors classes
 * Students enjoy controlling the pace of own learning, and like being able to see things again. Students can also do well by not taking any notes.
 * “Flipping” does NOT mean to just flip how you do things

@BrdCmpbll: Flipping in HS Social Science Classes
 * getting parents/Admin on board: Sending links about it and its benefits. Make sure to explain the rationale.
 * There’s a lot of information to share with them.
 * “Just ask.” If you don’t ask, you’ll never get what you want. May as well ask and maybe you’ll be successful.
 * Once the administration sees that you can and are willing to do more in your classroom, they will give you more.
 * Parent comment: That’s a great idea, but my daughter is not going to do it. I have four kids and if I have to buy her a smartphone, I have to buy all of my kids a smartphone.” After seeing how engaged her daughter became about science, she bought a smartphone for herself and became more tech-savvy.

@daretochem:
 * Yeah, it’s homework, but it looks totally different. Kids are amazed that “all they have to do is watch a video.”
 * When do your kids need you? They need you to help them analyze the repercussions of a presidential action, not write down basic facts. Meaning conversation = I’m winning
 * When is the teacher’s input REALLY necessary?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Allows you to increase the difficulty of what kids are doing.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Inconsistent technology is not as important as you may think: <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> class becomes about collaboration rather than individuals needing a laptop

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Used less technology after implementing the flipped classroom. Library, public library, someone in their neighborhood has access to technology. There’s always something available. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> Doesn’t need to be internet; can be burned to a DVD or a flash drive <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> Can your school allow students to borrow laptops? <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A lot of students watch the videos on their phones. They make use of the bus ride to and from school: “Learn whenever you want.”

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Aaron Sams (@chemicalsams) and Jon Bergmann (@jonbergmann) originated the idea


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">How do you know if students are watching your videos?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Make a personal and a class related youtube channel
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Youtube gives you stats of how many views your videos have
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Students have to submit five questions based on the video-->create formative assessment but also lets you know who has/hasn’t watched it
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Create a google forms on the video: Students go to the link and answer the questions about the video
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Insert silly code words in the video

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">The point of the flipped classroom is to speak with every kid every class!

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Now I do short bits and then let them work.”

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">i.e. yellow flame on Bunsen burner to make it visible instead of blue, ask kids to comment on what was wrong with the flame or whatever.
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What kind of content is in your videos?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Videos range from definitions to example problems to typical lectures.
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">If you have to do something incorrectly in order to make something video-friendly


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What role does your textbook have in your flipped classroom?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Textbook is gone for Brad.
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Lectures/textbook reading now incorporated in videos and primary sources/analysis happens in class
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Science textbooks are for the teacher, not for the kids. The book is a cop-out for the teacher to be lazy and boring.
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What would you have them read instead of the book?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Primary sources
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Non fiction book about the topic
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Journals/articles/etc


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Flipped classroom doesn’t have to include videos!


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What are your youtube channels?

 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">How long are your video lessons?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Brad’s are 10 minutes


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“The handcuffs are off”
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Don’t have the limitations to “cover” the material in the same way... if you get involved in a real conversation, you can include content in a video for tomorrow.


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">do you pass video-making on to the kids?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Sometimes.


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Assessment:
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Ability to give kids options
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Objective focused instead of content focused
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Brad tells them they will still be taking the book test... a traditional and a non-traditional assessment for each unit


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What do you do with students who don’t do the work (view the videos) at home:


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What score does a perfect piece of work earn if it’s 2 weeks late?
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“There’s no expiration date on learning”


 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Be careful of copyright issues while you are making videos... anything you post to youtube opens you up to potential issues.
 * <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Fair Use and Transformation... make sure you are citing and giving credit where credit is due
