Just in Time to F lip Your C lassroom - 0 views

  •  
    With advocates like Sal Khan and Bill Gates, flipped classrooms are attracting an increasing amount of media and research attention. We had heard Khan's TED talk and were aware of the concept of inverted pedagogies in general. Yet, it really hit home when we accidentally flipped our classroom. Our objective was to better prepare our students for class. We set out to effectively move some of our course content outside of class and decided to tweak the Just-in-Time-Teaching approach (JiTT). To our surprise, this tweak - which we like to call the flip-JiTT - ended up completely flipping our classroom. What follows is narrative of our experience and a procedure that any teacher can use to extend JiTT to a flipped classroom

EHEST Safety Clip (SHORT PREVIEW) - YouTube - 0 views

    More and more clips like this appear on YouTube. Is it worth investing time and effort in preparing such a clip in HE environment where students enrolled in the class already. Maybe a teaser for a lecture or complete Module that is an option. Why not!?

    Will we ever get rid of book. Maybe but ebooks are going to stay with us. More green option if nothing else. For digital natives and maybe not for as analogue ancestors :) When building a Project it is worth having information where to get books that you might need in addition to material offered within the course - online of course.
