      Sara calls this 'broadcaster envy'.  At some point you have to get over the parts that jump out at you on the screen.  It does get easier...if you keep screencasting!
  • you slip up a little, no big deal. It should take you 5 minutes to make a 5-minute video.
  • just upload your video to YouTube, preferably your own channel.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • My main reason for choosing YouTube is that it is available everywhere, on every device. My students have literally no excuse for not watching my videos.

      Here are some interesting limits - often people who flip don't take into consideration the amount of work they are requiring students to do at home... 
  • The limits I decided on were a maximum video length of 5 minutes, and no more than 3 videos assigned per night.

      Don't forget if you structure your next day around deeper discussions you are going to know if the students watched the video.  I hesitate to get excited about quizzing and hiding things - the next day has to be meaningful or why in the world would students watch in the first place?
  • Because my students are responsible for watching and understanding the videos, they are becoming much more independent learners
  • In the Flipped Classroom model, short instructive videos are watched at home in lieu of lecture in the classroom. This allows for much more time in the classroom for remediation and differentiation.
  • You really need to choose something that is easy and straightforward for you.

      This time will significantly decrease quickly as you become more proficient with screencasting for sure!
  • Saving each lesson in multiple formats might be a solution to this problem. Also, creating a Youtube channel and posting videos on Youtube will make videos more accessible to all students.

      YouTube will be open for LPS students next year so that will help!  It is also great when you have an .mp4 video file saved to a usb device as well for the students without access to be able to download before going home.

      Tracey - What implications does this have for my grade 3 students? Do you suggest that I upload videos to my Youtube channel (on my school account) for student and parent communication (i.e. a short video tutorial - maybe someday a screencast when I learn how- of modeling the steps in the process of solving a word problem)?
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Some students might not do their homework because they are used to a more concrete and traditional paper-and-pencil homework assignment, and therefore they might perceive this “new homework” as abstract, irrelevant, and perhaps not as important.
  • the most effective videos are the ones that manage to keep students accountable for their learning.
  • at key parts of the lesson/video the teacher might instruct the students to pause the video
  • Such techniques make students active participants and empower them to take control of their own learning.
  • Most people who flipped their classroom agree that in the beginning, teachers should expect to spend an average of 30 minutes of recording time to create a 10-minute lesson.

  • argue that school needs to keep up with the times by promoting creativity, entrepreneurship, design thinking and hands on skills.
  • project-based learning

    This video is a good one to watch and consider...what if? ...our kids think use project based learning to master concepts instead of just sticking to traditional worksheets and tests.  It is definitely food for thought.

      When you first try to flip a meeting for your building, it might not go exactly as planned.  Keep in mind to flip what needs to be direct instruction and then engage in deeper conversations as a staff when together.  I really like the idea of using video gathered from classrooms to get conversations started.  You can't focus on everything at once.  Pick one or two things and focus your conversations around these important points.
  • through flipping, administrators can send out these articles and questions in order to give teachers the proper amount of thinking time so the ultimate conversations are more enriching.
  • The flipped faculty meeting approach offers administrators and educators the opportunity to dig down deeper and get to the heart of what matters in school.

  • Getting together as a faculty should be about focusing on curriculum and instruction, and more importantly focus on our students.

  • during your actual faculty meetings to wrestle with the questions that THEY came up with while watching your videos.
  • final 10 minutes making any key points that you HAVE
  • teachers will enjoy your faculty meetings WAY more when the keys to the conversation are turned over to them.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • flipped faculty meetings become places where cross-departmental and grade level conversations can actually happen
  • if the information that needs to be delivered is consumed before the meeting even begins -- there's PLENTY of time for teachers to learn from -- and to build relationships with -- peers who work in different departments or on different hallways.

    There are many ways to 'flip' meetings.  Here are some ideas from an administrator.

  • Maybe the biggest hurdle in the implementation of the flipped class is time.  It takes time to plan for the flip.  It takes time to make videos.  It takes time to flip the assessment.  It is hard work.
  • Even though the class may look a bit chaotic, dig deeper and look to see what is really happening in a flipped class.
  • Encourage them as they struggle to implement change.

  • It is imperative that the teacher has adequate support from the technology department.

    Great thoughts on how to support your teachers with flipping the classroom.

      This sounds really cool!  Students often need to share websites with eachother, and if they could annotate the shared sites so others could see it, that would be amazing.

      There are a lot of things we need to sign up whole classes of students for.  What is the best tech solution for this.  Ex:  Google sites.
