Extended Abstract: 

One of the hottest topics in education today - The Flipped Classroom. We will discuss the pedagogy, methodologies, and tools behind the flipped model and ideology of instruction.

This session will focus on the methodologies and specific tools used to flip your classroom. The pedagogy of this growing ideology and model of instruction will be discussed including examining other teacher’s experiences including equitable access. As an online instructor of a course with this same title, I will be sharing the experiences of several other teachers who have taken my course in the process of learning how to flip their own classroom and will share some of their trials, victories, and frustrations. The session will mainly discuss a variety of tools and processes typically used in flipping a classroom, including:

Recording lessons with video

Recording lessons as screencasts using several tools

Recording lessons with other tools already in your classroom

Posting your videos online

Creating an online presence for your classroom

How to make your video lessons available to ALL of your students

What to do in class now that your lectures are watched at home

Assessments

How the flipped model can even work in the primary grade levels

What is the blended classroom?

Connecting with other teachers that are flipping their classrooms

What other ways are there to flip your classroom besides the use of video instruction?

What does the research say about the Flipped Classroom model?

Attendees will walk out of the session with a better understanding of what the flipped model is, how to implement it in their own classroom, how to find some of the specific tools normally used to flip a classroom, how to create lesson videos of different types, how to post those videos online and make them available to their students in other ways, and how to find more information from other teachers using this model.
