2. Does this resemble your classroom on some days?

3. Or this... ?

4. Do you have similar questions?: Do I care more about my students’ success than they do? Is anyone hearing me out there? There must be a better way?! How can I get my students to actually DO their homework? How can I get my students to not just ‘do’ their homework, but actually understand it? I’m tired of ‘spoonfeeding’ my students, how do I get them to take ownership of their own learning?

5. If you sometimes question the process of teaching - the pedagogy - within your own classroom and the fact that your classroom doesn’t really look that much different than a classroom in the 1880’s, then maybe you are open to ‘flipping’ your classroom?!

6. Most people consider this to be the definition of ‘flipping’: When it is actually this: Better Learning Through Structured Teaching by Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey, 2008

8. Four Types of Flipped Instruction: Wait! That’s only 3!

9. Ultimate Goal: Flipping for Mastery Mastery Learning enables students to take responsibility for their own learning. Mastery Learning allows students to work at their own pace through the curriculum. Students conduct experiments, watch vodcasts, work on assignments, interact with the class learning management site, have one-on-one discussions with their teacher, and get tutored by their peers and cadet teachers. When they complete a unit they must demonstrate that they have learned the content by taking an exit assessment that includes both a project and an exam. If students score less than 85% on these exit assessments, they must go back and re-learn those concepts they missed and retake the exam. Grades are now determined by how much content they have mastered. http://www.flippedclassroom.com/mastery.php

10. I consider myself a pretty good lecturer. I use Keynote, clickers, and lots of CFU’s. But I look around the room during my lecture and can’t help but think that there must be a better use of our time in class together. Let me give you what I call “The Perfect Storm” for flipping the classroom. Most students don’t need us there by their side when they are taking notes. They need someone to help them with the application.

11. “Before, while I did my homework, I would be eating dinner, watching TV, texting my friends, and my family would be talking to me. Now, I’m just watching a video and taking notes. I can’t do anything else and so it makes me focus more.” Dana - 11th grade Precalc student

16. The Mechanics Creating an Online Presence for Your Class YouTube Channel (YouTube Education) Others: TeacherTube, SchoolTube, EduTube, Vimeo Best option: Google Sites

17. The Mechanics What About Equitable Access?! Online - Home, Smartphone On an iDevice (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Android On DVD In a lab, library, or your classroom at lunch or some other time during the day (Intervention period?) Ultimately up to the student (Encyclopedias)

18. Now What Do I Do During Class?! Most common - traditional ‘homework‘ Worksheets, book assignments, online practice Access to the expert, access to each other More focused than doing it at home Discussions, Skype, Twitter, Mapping, Games, Labs, Hands-on projects, Online experiences Common Core Standards & The Flipped Classroom This is where you become the expert in your field and in your classroom AND you get to be creative!

19. The Parent (& Administrator) Trap Be careful! Very individual decision here - depends on your specific situation Some possible topics for your discussion with your administrator: Are they familiar with the flipped concept? Sending out a letter to parents If he/she were to get some complaints from parents, how would they respond? What can you expect as their overall support in the flipped process? Are there options for a student such as taking the course from another teacher? Is there some type of orientation that can be done for parents? Permisson/Forgiveness
