Flipped Library Model How do you make your information rewindable and accessible to all students?
What is “Flipped”? • Different meanings in different situations
Classroom • Students view a lesson at home • Class time focuses on working with students to apply their learning • Classroom becomes a working area with an expert ready to assist
Library • On-demand help when needed • View instruction before coming to the library • Ex: learn how to access and search databases in a video, and use library time to search and get information with librarian assistance • View book talks or reviews for reading suggestions • Learn how to use the library (great for students who aren’t there for orientation)
Another Way To Think About It: Make Learning Rewindable • Record lessons when being taught • First time? Second time? • Post to accessible location • Include other relevant resources • An archive of all your lessons is now available for all
The Facts Pros Cons None Not one Zippo Nada Can’t think of any (Just do it and have fun!) • You get to learn a new technology (free ones at that!) • Students don’t have to wait to get information • Documentation of the amazing work you do • Remove barriers to students getting help
How To • Equipment • Computer • Camera • Microphone • Software • Lesson or Topic • What can students learn in short chunks of time? • Are you recording a longer lesson for an archive? • Is the video a helpful resource (think infomercial) • What are you goals for the video (do students need it to do something?)
Software Choices – For Purchase • Camtasia • Record, annotate, be super creative • Not a huge learning curve, but you do need a little patience • $$$
Software – Free! ISU
Or Could You… • Use Lync • Record your lesson/screen/questions • Post video to secure site for kids to access • Use a Google Hangout • Record your lesson/screen/questions • Loads to Youtube (can be made private)
Information to Get • Do your students have a way to watch the videos (how? when? consistent access or at school?) • Do your students typically do their homework? (majority rules) • What type of video will help the most (you? kids? lesson? parents? admins? teachers?)
It’s Not About Less Work – But About More Meaningful Work When You Are Face-to-Face
Next Steps • Go Online and Get Support • Join the Flipped Learning Network • Connect with Others Who are Flipping • Twitter is a great PLN • Just Try It • Think of information that you repeat or that students would appreciate accessing at their own pace • Create a video/resource for it, post it, and tell your students about it • Modify and adjust for your net one
