Today I learned the first steps to flip my classroom. This is an
opportunity for teachers to use available technology in the classroom to
develop lessons, but also for students to expand their learning beyond
the classroom and cover materials at home. Videos, blogs, and social
media can all be used to drastically change the ideas of schoolwork and
homework. Through the flipped classroom, teachers have an opportunity
to create videos of lessons to reach students beyond the classroom that
might be struggling or just curious to go further with some material.
Thanks to one of the videos presented today, I already learned that I
have been tying my shoes wrong for about thirty years. It took about
four minutes to present the video that another person had created to
show an alternative method of thinking about a standard topic that so
many people assume they do well.
