1. Using teaching videos in physics class A practical approach to flipped classroom and inquiry based learning Media & learning conference 20, 21 november 2014

2. Background: Sint Pietersinstituut Turnhout ASO: general secondary education Around 1000 students: 12 – 18 years Physics in 5th and 6th year: 16-18 years Science-Mathematics: 6/8 hours Math; 2/3 hours Physics Modern languages – Sciences: 4 hours Math; 2 hours Physics Latin-Mathematics: 6 hours math; 2 hours Physics 5th year: Electrostatics; Electrodynamics; Electromagnetics; Nuclear Physics 6th year: Kinematics, Dynamics; Work & Energy; Oscillations & Waves Use of videos in: Curriculum:

3. History: First participated in workshop in flipped classroom in 2013 Tried making chapter in vibrations flipped: failed. Schoolyear 2012-2013 Made chapter on nuclear physics: succes Worked as “actor” in physics movies for Wezooz Academy. Schoolyear 2013-2014 The curriculum for the entire 6th year in flipped classroom form. Put them on www.labofun.be.www.labofun.be Schoolyear 2014-2015 The curriculum for the entire 5th and 6th year in flipped classroom form on www.labofun.bewww.labofun.be Chapters in Electrodynamics and Newtons Laws in Inquiry based learning / flipped classroom combination (for SAILS project)

4. Teacher: Sage on stage Homework: work on problems Traditional Lecture: 25’ Worked example: 10’ Student activity: 15’ Classroom activity:

5. Summary on board Lecture & worked example: Homework 10’ The flipped classroom Teacher: Guide by the side Student activity: 45’ Questions + summary: 5’ Classroom activity:

6. Personal method Videos: White background, text, schematics Content: not according to manual; but according to government curriculum Length: between 5-10 minutes Subject divided in small portions Power point presentation + videos of performing demonstration experiments + use of science applets (Walter Fendt; Surendranath,…)

7. Made with Microsoft expression encoder 4 Free version Put online in Youtube, but organised in chapters on our website www.labofun.be.www.labofun.be Video together with PDF from PPP’s Included Microsoft Expression Encoder 4 Screen Capture Personal method

8. Student material A printed course to accompany each chapter. Students can printout PPP file. Each lesson/subject -Questions about video -Physics problems & questions Personal method

9. When studying for tests/exam: students watch videos again + solve extra problems. After each chapter, students receive course material with answers (on smartschool) Personal method

10. Standard flipped classroom At home: teacher corrects the answers (points receive a low weight factor in end calculation) Students get homework assignment: watch video and answers questions about video. Sometimes this assignment is accompagnied by a demonstration experiment to awake interest in subject matter. 5’: Students ask questions. Teacher put summary on board: formulas, schematic 45’: students solve problems (as given by teacher) in group and give answers at the end of lesson. One page per group.

11. Inquiry based learning with videos Example: Newton’s law of motion (Used in SAILS project) Student problem solving activity: 30’ Student experiment activity: 15’ Verification of learned subject by video: 5’ Classroom activity: First law:

12. Student experiment activity: 65’ Student preparation of experiment: 30’ Cross group checking: 5’ Classroom activity: Second law: Lecture & worked example: Homework 10’ Student activity: 45’ Questions + summary: 5’ Classroom activity: Inquiry based learning with videos

13. Conclusion More efficient use of time: Students are now active most of the time and this during the assimiliation period of the subject matter The subject matter is being assimilated at a deeper level. Students feel more comfortable: When studying for exams they can have lecture again Greatest gain for the not so strong but dutyfully working students They are supported at the most critical moment of study Students learn to take responsibility for own learning: All media is provided and support given, they have to become active learners Future plans: Student research assignment: make a video Incorporate tests in Labofun Alternate videos: same subject ; different approach
