How the Flipped Classroom was Born by Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams In 2004, we both started teaching at Woodland Park High School in Woodland Park, Colorado. "And how the Flipped Classroom changes the way teachers talk with parents And then one day our world changed. Flipping Increases Student Interaction One of the greatest benefits of flipping is that overall interaction increases: Teacher to student and student to student.

The Teacher's Guide To Flipped Classrooms Since Jonathan Bergman and Aaron Sams first experimented with the idea in their Colorado classrooms in 2004, flipped learning has exploded onto the larger educational scene. It’s been one of the hottest topics in education for several years running and doesn’t seem to be losing steam. Basically, it all started when Bergman and Sams first came across a technology that makes it easy to record videos. They had a lot of students that regularly missed class and saw an opportunity to make sure that missing class didn’t mean missing out on the lessons. Once students had the option of reviewing the lessons at home, the teachers quickly realized the shift opened up additional time in class for more productive, interactive activities than the lectures they’d been giving. And voila: a movement began. A 2014 survey from the Flipped Learning network found that 78% of teachers said they’d flipped a lesson, and 96% of those that tried it said they’d recommend it.

Other things have come and gone in the past few years, but flipped classrooms are getting even more and more popular.

IPad = Flipped Classroom Made Easy Yes, the Flipped Classroom (Video lessons watched before class time) is a fashionable topic but whilst there’s still chalk-and-talk together with standardised testing I feel I must continue to push it. And no, it’s not just chalk-and-talk in disguise. It creates a whole new learning environment for the student. I haven’t taught a whole class for 6 months! Flipping my classroom has changed my career. Why should all teachers flip their classroom? Online videos should replace all whole-class teaching because: Not every student listens to teachers when surrounded by distractionsStudents understand at differing levels when lessons are one-offsSome students need the teaching at a different pace (both faster or slower) to what’s delivered in the classroom.

Learning Platform - itslearning | Case story: Flipped classroom Elisabeth Engum records herself explaining a maths concept for her students and posts the video on itslearning. She asks her students to watch the video at home in the evening, and in class the next day the students complete exercises related to the video. They work together or individually while Elisabeth moves between students helping them solve the equations. Flipping the traditional classroom This is the flipped classroom in action. And you don’t have to have great video recording skills to practice it. The process has countless benefits for both Elisabeth and her students. Giving students control of their learning "Traditional teaching with the chalkboard requires very little of students. “On the other hand, students really like being able to see lessons over again and there is more time for instruction during class.

Var är alla hur och varför? ~ Kilskrift Det är allt fler kommuner och andra skolhuvudmän som ser till att eleverna får bättre tillgång till egna digitala verktyg. Lärplattor och datorer delas ut och allt fler har en-till-en när det gäller antalet. Det glädjer mig. Samtidig så blir det då inte längre någon större nyhet att eleverna får varsin dator. Självklart är det en nyhet för eleven själv, för skolhuvudmannen. Men det är trots allt inte särdeles nytt för en skola i Sverige. Varför säger jag att det är tragiskt? Vilken skola skulle ropa ut:Vi har köpt in pennor och papper till alla våra elever! Och jag undrar också Varför? I mina ögon är pedagogik med datorer och utan datorer ännu inte riktigt samma sak. Nästa gång jag läser om en skola som infört digitala verktyg så hoppas jag få läsa om hur och varför istället.

Finding the right resource to support flipped classrooms in the UK What if traditional methods of classroom teaching and ‘homework’ were switched? Teaching professionals have constantly looked at improving ways of raising learner engagement and attainment. While some have fared better than others, it is technology that has offered the greatest scope for innovation, helping the teacher to spend more time supporting students directly rather than instructing them from the front of the class. Flipped or reversed teaching is not a new concept; it dates back to the early nineties where it was trialled in a study on Peer Instruction at Harvard University. The basis of Professor Eric Mazur’s study was to integrate computer software into the classroom in order to allow the teacher to act as a coach rather than a lecturer. Today, the purpose of flipped learning has not changed. The one significant change since the 1990s, however, has been the advance in sophisticated classroom resources. What effect has this had on traditional teaching techniques?

Flippade klassrum har både för- och nackdelar Några av skälen som lärarna uppger är: vi får mer tid att använda tillsammans med studenter och elever för att diskutera autentiska frågor. Studenterna involveras mer aktivt i lärandeprocessen och metoden bidrar till reflektion både i och utanför klassrummet. Om någon har missat ett undervisningspass finns det möjlighet att ta igen en del via nätet och studenterna kan i större utsträckning arbeta med utrustning som bara finns tillgängligt i klassrummen. Sist men inte minst – studenterna gillar det! Video, klassrummet och video igen Ett vanligt tillvägagångssätt för lärarna i studien är att de publicerar en introduktionsvideo på YouTube för att presentera ett praktikfall med frågor som ska besvaras innan klassen möts. Mer hemarbete Att flippa undervisningen har både för- och nackdelar. Den första handlar om motstånd hos eleverna till att ägna mer tid åt hemarbete med risk för att de kommer oförberedda till undervisningen. Mer öppna till samarbet Flippa klassrummet en gång till
