  3. Brian Bennett- The Flipped Classroom is a mindset, not a method • Aaron Sams - There is no such thing as THE flipped classroom

  4. Flipped Lessons are not: Flipped Lessons are: • Just videos • An online class • Replacing teachers with videos • Students working without structure • Students working alone • A means to INCREASE interaction and personalized contact time between students and teachers • An environment where students take responsibility for their own learning

  5. Benefits of Flipped Lessons • A classroom where students who are absent due to illness or extra-curricular activities such as athletics or field-trips, don't get left behind. • A class where content is permanently archived  for review or remediation. • A class where all students are engaged in their learning. • A place where all students can get a personalized education

  6. 5 Styles of Flipping Video introduces topic, class time expands on it Video interlude introduces a problem or a challenge Video introduces homework Video prompts reflection Students teach with video

  7. Goals of the Flipped Lesson Create an engaging, interactive environment that is student- centered. Make the best use of your face- to-face time with your students. Focus on deeper meaning and connections, not just basic rote memorization and practice. Practice, application, and working with content is done inside of class.
