 A synonym for online videos. When most people hear about the flipped class all they think about are the videos. It is the interaction and the meaningful learning activities that occur during the face-to-face time that is most important.  About replacing teachers with videos.  An online course.  Students working without structure.  Students spending the entire class staring at a computer screen.  Students working in isolation. The Flipped Classroom is NOT:

 A means to INCREASE interaction and personalized contact time between students and teachers.  An environment where students take responsibility for their own learning.  A classroom where the teacher is not the "sage on the stage", but the "guide on the side".  A blending of direct instruction with constructivist learning.  A classroom where students who are absent due to illness or extra-curricular activities such as athletics or field-trips, don't get left behind.  A class where content is permanently archived for review or remediation.  A class where all students are engaged in their learning.  A place where all students can get a personalized education. The Flipped Classroom IS:

 Videos  Presentations  Websites  Collaborative spaces  Differentiated instruction  Explicit instruction in cognition  Graphic Organizers  KWL Charts  Foldables  Cornell Notes The New Homework

 Daily 5  Tutorial Stations  Centers  Cooperative Learning  Small group/individual pull-outs  Writing conferences Writing conferences  Differentiation Differentiation Flipping Inside the Classroom

 Videos  Presentations  Websites  Apps  Collaborative spaces  Differentiated instruction  Explicit instruction in cognition  Small group to whole class analysis Role of Technology

Maximizing Time for Instruction  What types of learning activities do you always wish you had more time for in your classroom?  What types of activities that best impact learning do you sometimes have to sacrifice?  What parts of the lesson cycle could you capture with technology to give you more time for those activities?  What variation or aspect of “flipping” would work best in your instructional setting?

Design Time  Find a sample assessment item for a particular SE in a content area that you teach  Uncover the thinking and all of the cognitive moves that must be made for a student to demonstrate mastery of the SE  The lesson you design will focus on the direct instruction, modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and assessment necessary to aligning to all of the steps you uncovered.

 On which steps will the students most need your direct help?  Which steps could you accomplish with technology to give you more time to help the students with the most cognitively rigorous parts of the lesson?  What do you see yourself doing throughout this lesson cycle?  What do you see your students doing throughout this lesson cycle? Design Time

 Use available technology to create/locate a “flipped” component to this lesson.  Use lesson plan template to submit your design. If possible, attach or include a link to your technology piece. Design Time
