    TED-Ed is a platform where educators can find videos, many of which are the result of collaborations between teachers and animators, to supplement and enrich their core curriculum. Teachers using Ted-Ed can select any educational video to create a customized lesson, and choose whether to share it publicly or privately, tracking its impact on their students or the world.

    Teaching is fundamentally about human interactions, and that can't be replaced by technology. I was once asked by a group of educational state representatives if the flipped classroom would allow them to hire less teachers.

  • "It is no longer going to be true that ... an effective class consists of a person standing in front, rubbing a rock on a rock, while students transcribe that information into their notebooks," U President Eric Kaler said at a "Campus Conversation" last week. The university has the opportunity to "turn those classrooms inside out."
  • assistant professor Colleen Manchester is able to add practice problems during her class
  • "We have time to think critically about the concepts and then apply them to real-world scenarios,"
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Class consists of discussions, tours and project proposals. On Thursday, small groups presented designs of the area surrounding the future Vikings stadium to three city of Minneapolis employees.
  • "I saw this as an experiment," Fisher said. "But, frankly, having done it this way, I don't think I'm ever going back."
  • A survey of about 720 physics faculty members found that 88 percent of those who responded had heard of interactive teaching methods, such as those used in "flipped" classrooms, and 72 percent said they had tried at least one. Yet the study, released in August, found about a third of those who had tried stopped using it.

      This research focused on a very wide range of research-based instructional strategies and provided no support for any explanation for the discontinuation. The authors also suggested that "being female" contributed to the continuation of RBIS and argued that this is a good reason for universities to hire more female faculty. I would take these results with a grain of salt.
  • Now that most have tried interactive teaching strategies, the study says, "It may be more fruitful to focus on those who discontinue use than to focus even more effort on encouraging the remaining holdouts."
  • Cramer "flipped" his spring "Computational Chemistry" course but hasn't decided what he'll do next time. When lecturing, "even when I had my A-game going, I would look at the students sitting, listening and wonder, 'Am I really getting through?'" So he put his slides online and focused class on discussion. But student evaluations requested more lecturing.
  • They said it "felt like we were coming to a seminar about what we already knew, when we didn't really know it," he said. Cramer suspects it's partly the subject matter. But he also wonders whether some of "flipping's" success is due to students spending more time. "In effect, you double your class time," he said.
  • She believes it's more about the instructor than the structure. Carlson "is a good teacher. ... He puts it in a way that's not complicated," she said. "He knows how to talk to everybody."

    While this is a workshop PR blurb it really gets to a point I am interested in when it comes to the new roll for faculty/teachers in class and the types of assessment they are doing. Ken, we might want to check this one out.
