This week’s topic is the flipped class room. In my mind it ties closely with last week’s
technology focus. However the flipped
class room seems to take the classroom further.
So the acronym stands for F – Flexible Environment, The L is for
Learning Culture, The I is for Intentional Content, and the P is for
Professional Educators. The idea of a
flipped classroom is that lessons are viewed at home and students bring their
previous knowledge and experience with the lesson into the classroom where they
work on the content that was taught in the lesson. His allows students the ability to ask
teachers to clarify or re-explain anything.
Also since the instruction of a lecture or lesson are happening prior to
the class room in the classroom a teacher has more time to go through problems
that would have been assigned as homework
prior to the flipped classroom model.
Another asset to this model of classroom instruction there would be more
one on one teaching time, more student driven conversations. This model would also allow teacher more time
to assess a student’s comprehension of the material.
Now every lesson and or subject is not going to fit easily
into the flipped model. I think that
over all flipped classrooms will be a great asset to future classrooms
again allow for my in class discussions and practice WHILE the teacher is
available to help.
This brings a valid question to the intellectual property of a teacher's work and online entertainment options. Can a person use someone else's work? How much of another persons work can be used? What is the right way to give that person credit for their contribution to your work? In one of the posts we read for class tonight they give VERY specific criteria for how many seconds of music can be played or how many images from the same artist can be included in a work. I found this incredible useful and saved a copy of the listed information for me to reference back to from time to time.
