History of Flipping • Flipping started with teaching math and science concepts. • Some form of flipping takes place in every classroom. • It’s not all about video lectures and teacher-made videos. • Online resources are abundantly available.
The Benefits of Flipping • Provides more time for discussing, analyzing, and debatingin the classroom • Allows students to review the work at their own pace andcome to class prepared to engage in the activity • Allows students who are not able to attend class to keep upby reviewing the videos at home • Allows students who are more reserved to prepare for classroom discussions • Provides second language learners the extra time neededto comprehend the material
Reading/ Writing Classes • Allows time for students to analyze writing prompts • Allows more time for workshopping strategies and techniquesbefore students attempt tasks on their own • Allows the instructor to work directly with students in therevision process • Gives students the opportunity to read at their own pace • Allows much more time for discussion and analysis of reading and interactive activities in the classroom
Methods • Provide guided exploration of concepts and ideas related to the writing task • Use videos, online activities to explain concepts • Assign pre-class readings and have students complete quizzes on this reading before coming to class. • Create videos that explore a topic and require students to watch them before class.
Listening/Speaking Classes • Allows more time for teacher/student and student/student interaction • Allows more time for authentic language activities based upon lecture/video • Allows more time for reserved (either personally or culturally) students to process and prepare for authentic language activities from which they might otherwise exclude themselves or feel intimidated by.
Listening/Speaking Class • In all levels it allows more time for students to process the information without being distracted by impatient or more advanced classmates. • Gives the teacher more time to interact with individual students, participate in, assess, and stimulate small group discussions. • Students are encouraged to engage in higher order thinking and processing activities .
Listening Activities • Provide introductions to the flipped materials to give the students a framework for understanding and motivation. • Instructor introduces the topic in class before the students listen to the video at home. • Assign videos, recorded lectures, and activities related tothe topic to stimulate and enhance student interaction, comprehension, and “ownership” of concepts and skillsbefore they actively discuss the topic in class • Videos can be recorded by the instructor or found at the following sites: Khan Academy, YouTube (Teacher Tube),TED talks and more
