It is the personal blog/website of Jon Bergmann. Jon is a teacher, educational coach, and writer who has had the privilege of helping educators around the world reconsider what education can look like. He, along with Aaron Sams, are considered two of the pioneers in the Flipped Class Movement. They co-wrote the book on the Flipped Classroom.
"Flipping the classroom typically requires the use of certain technology tools, whether for recording lecture content or for orchestrating classroom discussion. From screencasting to interactive presentations, here are some resources to get a flipped class off the ground."
"We have talked a lot about flipped learning in this blog and I have received several emails requesting a tutorial on how to flip a lesson using TED Ed platform ( as I prefer to call it ). "
"The Flipped Learning Global Initiative (FLGI), is a worldwide coalition of educators, researchers, technologists, professional development providers and education leaders who are committed to flipped learning. "
"I've started putting together some videos about how to use various tools for creating and sharing flipped video lessons. In the videos embedded below I demonstrate how use EduCanon, VideoNotes, EDpuzzle, Versal, and Otus to create and distribute flipped video lessons."
"One of the most frequent requests that I get is for suggestions on developing flipped classroom lessons. The first step is to decide if you want to create your own video lessons from scratch or if you want to develop lessons based on videos that others have produced. In this post we'll look at tools for doing both."
"A flipped classroom is any classroom where the lecture or traditional "teaching" portion is performed at home, and the activity or homework portion is done in the classroom.
Rather than serving as a lecturer, the teacher or instructor is more of a guide, someone there to help their students work through problems."
"flipped learning positively impact the learning that takes place in the classroom in the sense that it:Encourages student understanding, enables differentiation, ensures access to expert support, enables student engagement, creates a supportive learning environment, and provides opportunities for collaboration. "
"We talk a lot about flipped classrooms on Edudemic. In fact, it's by far one of our most sought-after topic in terms of questions on social media, search queries, and more. So we thought it would be useful to organize all of our many resources into one easy-to-use guide. "
"Seventeen months ago, I made my first flipped learning video. And then, unexpectedly, it happened: I crossed the century mark. That is to say, I made my hundredth video. What have I learned along the road between one and one hundred?"
"The idea of flipping your classroom can be both appealing and intimidating. It gets you, the teacher, out of your comfort zone, but in return enables you to spend more time coaching your students as they engage in meaningful tasks and interactions in class."
What have you heard about the flipped classroom? That it's just the latest education fad? That it only works for certain academic subjects? It's not uncommon to come across references in the web media to poorly informed and misconstrued ideas like these. Given the value and many benefits inherent in this powerful form of blended learning, it is important that these misconceptions be addressed and dispelled.
The "flipped classroom" was being discussed in social lounges, in conference sessions, on the exhibit floor, on the hashtag and even at dinner. People wanted to know what it was, what it wasn't, how it's done and why it works.
