What is the Flipped Classroom? • Pedagogicalmodel in which the typical lecture and homework elements of a course are reversed, promoting student engagement and critical thinking • Repurposingof class time into a workshop where students can inquire about lecture content, test their skills in applying knowledge, and interact with one another in hands-on activities. http://www.educause.edu/library/resources/7-things-you-should-know-about-flipped-classrooms
Flipped Classroom FLC Practitioners • Steve Brown, Marine Transportation • Steve Runyon, Chemistry • John Rodgers, Marine Engineering Tech • Julie Chisholm, English and Poetry • Bunny Paine-Clemes, English & Creativity • Nipoli Kamdar, Economics
Implementation and Strategies Pre-class instruction Jing, Snagit, Echo 360, Recorded PPT Pre-class online assignment Google Forms, Word Cloud, Moodle Quizzes Read feedback for areas of confusion Clickers, Moodle Gradebook Plan lesson and clicker questions Aplia, Moodle discussion boards Flipping Macro Economics Assign follow-up questions
Nipoli’s Macro Economics • Snippet on Calculating CPI : http://bit.ly/109ugZG • Longer presentation on Elasticity : http://bit.ly/Z9Vdbb
Implementation and Strategies? Out of Class Strategies • Short Video Lessons Using a Tablet PC and Snag-It Video Capture • Posted on Moodle • 5-15 minutes in length • Topic-Specific • Cover basic concepts of each topic • Require Reading Notes for Assigned Reading Flipping General Chemistry
Flipping General Chemistry In-Class Strategies • Hold students accountable for out of class materials • On-line Quiz • In-class Pop-quiz • Videos accessed through Moodle • Class begins where videos left off • More time for problem-based small group activities and discussions
Assessment Content Coverage/Student Engagement Clemes: • “Students ask more questions in class. I can cover more material.” Runyon: • “Students were so much more engaged in my flipped class. I did very little lecturing, and students came to class ready to work and ask questions.” Browne: • “I could cover more material, but not sure whether the test scores are any different.” Kamdar: • “Easier to push information transmission outside the class” • “Allowed me to focus" Instructors
Initial Assessment of Student Performance Engineering Students in General Chemistry
Assessment of Student Learning Outcome 2 (Conceptual Understanding) Engineering Students in General Chemistry
Assessment of Student Learning Outcome 3 (Quantitative Problem Solving) Engineering Students in General Chemistry
Challenges • Initial Investment in time • How to get students to watch video and participate and verify that they are watching… • Gap between participants and non-participants great Technical • Initially posted videos on Moodle • File Size • Compatibility • Looked for online video repository • Streamcast.com, video playback and sound issues. Not resolved • Youtube, Vimeo : privacy issues and distracting layout and ads Logistical
Activity Collaborative Google Doc • Let’s brainstorm: Think about the technologies that your faculty have used to supplement the classroom and how these might support a flipped model…. • How do these tools map to and meet the instructional goals of the flipped classroom? http://bit.ly/15WyYM2
