I am struggling with 2 things as it regards my classes.<br /><br />1st how to best utilize a flipped classroom in Social Studies (both the how and how often). It seems to be best suited for math and science. Even Khan academy has limited SS material. This leads into my second struggle.<br /><br />2nd finding the time needed prepare these so to really do it well, I want to know my students are truly learning.<br /><br />Thanks for the presentation. love both the pros and cons.Smeengehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16219917884851156305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3507158391291255109.post-80929821889674320022011-10-14T07:53:25.997-04:002011-10-14T07:53:25.997-04:00I am flipping 2 of my classes next semester, a Bus...I am flipping 2 of my classes next semester, a Business Math and an Algebra/Trig. class. I've been setting up the Prezi,power point presentations and videos in the LMS. Now working on the classroom activities. Excited about trying this. Eager to see students reactions to the flip. Have great support and encouragement from Administration. Thanks for sharing you presentation. <br /><br />Sheila M.<br />Bainbridge, GA<br />PC userAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3507158391291255109.post-45157706473036492982011-10-13T21:57:48.326-04:002011-10-13T21:57:48.326-04:00Marc - You know I am a fan of yours!

I am doing a modified flipped approach for AP Chem this year, I use PowerPoint presentations to get the initial notes to the students, not podcasts. They are responsible for the material before we get to the material in the class. I ask if there are questions about any of the material presented in the PPTs, address those and then we begin working on practice problems. They seem to like the approach and I definitely like it. I am hoping to continue to move in that directions so thanks for posting your Prezi--I will definitely be checking out the resources.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16260175809457618740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3507158391291255109.post-63854626911654744282011-10-13T01:04:13.246-04:002011-10-13T01:04:13.246-04:00Doubters fail to realize that flip teaching isn...Doubters fail to realize that flip teaching isn't a means to<br />"fix" education.

I teach Chem concepts, Chem 1 (essentially CP) and AP at Westfield (NJ) HS. I recently started using the flipped approach (albeit imperfectly) for my unit on sig figs, scientific notation & dimensional analysis, units for which I usually find a large percentage of students complaining that they didn't know where to start with the homework. I'm intrigued by your ability to manage/juggle the multiple activities occurring in your room. Some of it would work for me, and some wouldn't (our laptops are dinosaurs that won't connect to the internet, so viewing the videos in the classroom would be a problem). I still have to learn to wean myself off of "checking homework" and going over the material in the front of the room (even as a "review" of the videos) and simply head into working groups. I am the first teacher in the department to delve into this model, and a lot of people are looking to me for the results. I will introduce more flipping into units as I go, and I would like to make it the majority of the units next year, so the resources you provided will help tremendously.<br /><br />Lou Cloubrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05756565147850291183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3507158391291255109.post-26832594882810878872011-10-12T22:32:43.205-04:002011-10-12T22:32:43.205-04:00Thinking about flipping several of my high school ...Thinking about flipping several of my high school math classes. I do this from time-to-time for a lesson or two, but I have yet to get into the swing of making it the norm. Looking for more great resources to pull from.

I'm not the source of the material right now though, using everything and anything on the web (videos, activities, interactive web sites) to get the material/concepts delivered....I have three forms: Video Note Taking Guide (notes, comments, summary), Video Reflection (more along the lines of summarizing the ideas) and Web Site Reflection (topic, delivery, what did you learn)...this is the basis for their notebook and checked at the beginning of class. We start with discussions, student presentations and reviews...address questions about the "lesson" and eventually move into practice....very rough around the edges but so far so goodJohn Vennerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170251497361643997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3507158391291255109.post-55122902728162984792011-10-12T20:45:18.562-04:002011-10-12T20:45:18.562-04:00I love the flipped classroom.
