In this link, you can find 4 tips to flip your classrooms :)

"I recently attended the ISTE conference in San Diego, CA. While I was only there for about 36 hours, it was easy for me to pick up on one of the hottest topics for the three-day event. The "flipped classroom" was being discussed in social lounges, in conference sessions, on the exhibit floor, on the hashtag and even at dinner."

Knewton, a learning technology company, recently posted a fascinating infographic entitled "The Flipped Classroom: Turning Traditional Education on Its Head." What is the flipped classroom, you ask? According to the infographic, it is a classroom that "inverts traditional teaching methods, delivering instruction online outside of class and moving 'homework' into the classroom."

Here comes an infograph about social media on campus, with pros, cons and overall impact

In its Policy Priorities report, Can Social Media and School Policies be "Friends," ASCD provides a state-of-the union on social media use in schools. How administrators and educators deal with federal regulations, defining what's legal, parsing out school responsibilities and weighing them against the benefits of using social media to engage and communicate with students are all addressed in this useful guide.

I am not sure if this link is directly related to social media but this is an online conference about education and technology. Check out the link and register for free for the conference if you wish :)

The review highlights the pros and cons of facilitating weblogs for Englsih language teaching.

In this infographic we can see what devices can be most important to academic success for undergraduate students and their contribution percentages to success. Also, for what they are using those devices can be seen such as accessing syllabi and using course management systems, as we are also doing currently, and checking their grades. In addition, we can easily say that taking a class completely online is getting higher year by year. One of the interesting points of this infographic for me is that students said technology helps them feel connected to other students and their instructors and what's going on at the institution.

I like this infographic, it is speaking with data. It shows the most common devices used and also the applications. I think when we think the fast development of technology, this is a good representation.

To me, the most interesting thing in this infographic is that distance learning is not recent at all, and it actually dates as back as 1700s through correspondence. As you walk through the history of online learning on the left column, the right column will inform you about some other fun facts that happened at the very same year.

Dear friends, I liked this infographic because it is followable to see the development of online learning, year by year

I think a striking point in this infographic seems to be that the developments in the last decade seems to be quicker and more extensive than ever. There are only 12-year distance (2002-2014) between when OpenCourseWare started and 98 % of the universities started online programs. It is also seen that online courses are regarded as highly as face-to-face courses for most people of business and academy which might put the existence of today's pyhsical schools into risk. When we consider that online courses and learning tools are not that common in Turkey, it seems we are left behind that new distant learning paradigm in the world.

Flipped classrooms sometimes fall flat. In this third and final post, also see Part 1 and Part 2. You will gain diverse perspectives and new strategies from expert practitioners in K-12 and higher education including flipped learning pioneer, Aaron Sams.

This might give a little bit idea about what do avoid and watch for while flipping the learning.

Thanks for starting this. Many Flipped initiatives are failing due to lack of planning and limited pedagogical approaches. Should avoid implementing it because it is a fashion but focus more on its pedagogical value.
