UP Falling Two Keys to the Well-Flipped Classroom Stephanie Diemel, Shoreline Community College Physics @sjdiemel
Why Flip? • Engagement • Differentiated instruction • Responsibility, investment & risk-taking
Masters of the Craft • Eric Mazur, Harvard University • Tim Slater, Univ. of Wyoming • Salman Khan, Khan Academy
Challenge: Instructor Indecision • But I’m a great lecturer! • I’ve mastered my slides/whiteboard • Students love my lectures
Challenge: Student Resistance “I want to learn from you” Increased accountability/visibility Unsure of the new landscape
Commitment Commitment • Do not re-lecture • Allow your students to step up • Your role has changed • Do not re-lecture • Allow your students to step up • Your role has changed
Two Keys to Flipping Well • Guidance • Integration
Key: Guidance • Introduce students to the landscape • Make your expectations crystal clear • Create clear incentives for students
Guidance: Introduce students to the landscape • Course syllabus • Tone and structure on first few days of class
Guidance: Syllabus language “You are expected to take an active role in the process of your own learning. In support of this, I teach this class using a ‘flipped’ model.” “Each class meeting is designed based on the assumption that you have completed the assigned reading and video lecture for that section or chapter.” “Be ready to invest in yourself and your learning.”.
Guidance: Make your expectations crystal clear • Guide what to watch/read when • Explain how to engage with video lectures
Guidance: Create clear incentives • Frequent, low-stakes assessments • Students are held responsible in class Remember that excitement, joy and challenge are all real motivators as well
Key: Integration Create a Holistic Learning Experience
Integration “All learning is necessarily hybrid.” - Jesse Stommel
Integration: Connect 1. Begin class each day by referring to some aspect of the lecture video 2. Use daily announcements 3. Set aside class time for students to ask questions about the lecture video
Integration: Expect Expect that all students have watched the lecture and teach at that level. Refer to lecture details when working on applications in class.
Integration: Include Require participation in online discussion groups that relate to both in and out-of-class activities.
Integration: Include Discussion ideas: homework, lecture, resource sharing
Good luck, and have fun! Thanks for listening.
