      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.

      An interesting note, I found once I changed my profile to my actual picture, it became more of a social environment for me and I felt more connected ... wanting to share more information and definitely better at asking questions.
