  • ence.   I have used almost all lessons in the Expansion/Slavery curriculum section and I absolutely love these lesson. They are easy to use, well planned out, and it gets the students to stay on task and use academic language when discussing the material. The information is easily retained and the students are making more and more connections with material previously covered in class.   Rodney Del Rio, Teacher, Delano, CA More Testimonials

The Electric Educator: Flip your classroom through reverse instruction - 0 views

flip instruction

shared by scott klepesch on 08 Nov 10 - No Cached
  • Sams and Bergman asked a fundamental question: why are lectures delivered at school and problems worked at home? It's always been done that way, but it doesn't have to be.
  • They flipped the classroom to make it more flexible and dynamic, matching it with the needs of the students.
  • With class time liberated from lectures I was able to incorporate more hands-on activities, projects, and helping students better understand confusing and challenging concepts.

  • News of the change raced across the country, buoying the spirits of immigrants and immigrant advocates who have campaigned for such a change for more than 10 years.
  • "It gives us a chance to show the American people that we're not here to use your tax dollars; we're not here to take your jobs; we're here to contribute,"
  • "Why now? Why not let Congress decide next year on this issue and on all the illegal immigration problems we have?" he said. Arpaio said he will abide by the directive, but added he will continue to enforce state laws as he sees fit.

flip-thinking Reverse Instruction

shared by scott klepesch on 14 Feb 11 - No Cached
  • Steven B. Johnson writes in Where Good Ideas Come From about the revolutionary power of social media such as Twitter to advance ideas and innovation in a myriad of fields, and it has been fascinating to see this concept in action in the swift spread over the past six months of the practice of flipping classrooms,  which is also known as reverse instruction or learning, and is closely related to (or often synonymous with) teacher vodcasting.
  •   At the same time, what is now an opportunity is also becoming an urgency: if students don’t need to come to class to get informational content delivery, if they can get it easily on their own, we need to transform how we use our classroom time such that it continues to be relevant and valuable.
  • I decided to use [reverse instruction] to teach my students the basic concepts of neurons.  For homework, I posted to our wiki a Khan Academy video, as well as, a couple of TED talks from leading neurologists to explain some of the purposes neurons have and cutting edge research that’s being done in the field.  In total, maybe about 25 minutes of work.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • I love the idea that my students are now being taught by leading neurologists.  Shouldn’t all of our biology students be able to say that?
  • Start to think about seat time differently. What will you do in class when you make the students responsible for content? Where does homework fit it? Could this be part of the replacement for traditional homework? Again, be careful of the” course and a half.”
