1.FLIPPED LEARNING: THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY Anastasia Trekles, Ph.D. Purdue University Calumet Stefanie Ford Valparaiso Community Schools

2. WHATS FLIPPED LEARNING ALL ABOUT? When students receive key instruction at home, and work on tasks and application at school, you are flipping your classroom Instruction can happen in many forms: videos, podcasts, websites, DVDs In this way, students can work together on more meaningful projects and activities more in the classroom, while under your guidance You can gain back valuable class time and learning opportunities through this method! 3. ADVANTAGES OF FLIPPING THE CLASSROOM 4. NOW THE BAD NEWS The same benefit for flipping instruction can also work in reverse when it comes to being there for your students while they work When you are not there for instructional time, students may develop misconceptions about key ideas, and will not be able to instantly ask questions of you Some students may not be motivated enough to participate in the instruction at home on their own Others may not have the resources necessary at home to access what you need them to 5. NAVIGATING THE PITFALLS Ensure that students can reach you outside of the face-to-face classroom through email or a learning management system Help students form afterschool study groups for better accountability and collaborative learning Hold students responsible for their outside learning by grading participation and access 6. WHAT ABOUT KIDS WHO DONT HAVE ACCESS AT HOME? Provide downloads of videos or other learning materials on a thumb drive or CD/DVD Provide transcripts and/or lecture notes (this is good for ADA accessibility anyhow) Give students a place to study after school on school grounds, such as in your classroom with a dedicated machine, or in the computer lab Use tools that allow for media to be accessed and/or downloaded onto mobile devices that students may very well have available to them, like smartphones and iPads 7. FLIPPING YOUR CLASS: THE BASICSA-Z of Flipping the Classroom: 1. Students need to understand the flip and the expectations 2. Provide textbooks for a reference 3. Provide overview of grading (e.g. most flipped classrooms use "Mastery Learning) 4. Create a web presence to post your videos to (e.g. Edmodo) 5. Locate a place to post your videos (e.g. Vimeo, Screencast.com, your web site) 6. Locate a screen casting tool to record your videos; include headset and webcam 7. Storyboard your lesson and practice, practice, practice! 8. Create videos which are 3-5 minutes (lengthy videos lose attention) 9. Create online assignments and assessments to accompany video 10.
