8. Flipped Learning Network 7-8 minutes is a good length for a video Holds students attention

9. Self Directed Learning
Separate the teaching of content knowledge and cognitive application Students learn content knowledge on their own with the teacher acting as coach. Teachers lead cognitive application activities during class for deeper understanding

10. Does it work
Preliminary work says YES! According to the Flipped Learning Network (2012), membership on its social media site rose from 2,500 teachers in 2011 to 9,000 teachers in In one survey of 453 teachers who flipped their classrooms, 67 percent reported increased test scores, with particular benefits for students in advanced placement classes and students with special needs; 80 percent reported improved student attitudes; and 99 percent said they would flip their classrooms again next year (Flipped Learning Network, 2012)

11. Examples
Most common is teacher records short video to watch outside of class and use class time to practice skills and create work products
Record short videos to watch in class
Great to collaborate with teachers based on strength in different subject areas
Allows teacher to stay focused on content rather than student interruption
Create a play list on YouTube

24. What about our special needs students?
“According to the developer’s website, the app allows students without vocal capabilities to “speak” by tapping buttons that represent words or phrases, access grammar with verb and noun inflections, and transition to literacy with word prediction in “typing” view. And because students use the app on their lightweight, portable devices, they can do their flipped classroom “pre-work” from home and come to class the next day prepared to tackle their lessons.” “Rather than teach a subject and then move on to another—whether or not everyone in the class has "gotten" the material—in a flipped classroom each student focuses on mastery at his own pace and advances when he is confident and ready.”
