In the live session at the end of week 1, our moderators proposed the following poll:
My answer would be: ALL OF THEM!
What is Flipped Learning?
 |
Is it applicable in my classes?
I have been learning about the flipped classroom for some years and I have been trying to start changing my daily teaching practice introducing blended learning at first, but I haven’t flipped my classes completely. I still have to face many challenges, one of the biggest being the fact that in every class there are at least three or four students who have no Internet access at home. Moreover, ICT resources at school are not very good so it would be difficult for me to have these three students watch the videos during the lesson because I often have only one computer in the classroom and no interactive whiteboard.
But as I tend not to give up easily, I am here trying to learn more and find a way to make it. I appreciate the opportunities given by the self-paced learning environment offered by the flipped methodology, especially for children with learning disabilities. It could also help me engage fast finishers, who often feel neglected or bored in certain activities, by differentiating tasks or giving them a tutoring job during class period.

One of my main concerns during week 1 was: what if they can't or don't watch the videos?
When flipping, you need to produce a video. Here is an awesome list of screencasting resources curated by Katy Schrock.
If you're not a professional communicator, you may want to use a rubric to check if you're doing things right. This one is provided by Rcampus.
My exploration of tools has begun with Zaption. This is a short quiz I created using a Youtube video.
