I have learned so far that there are three steps to take when flipping a class and it starts with Journaling.
Reply to Marian Achenie's post:Excellent, I agree that students will find themselfs more knowledable by applyin the information in class after they review content at home. Feedback can be provided immediately and it decreases the frustration threat.
We have been using a similar system since transitioning to a blended schedule. it has been working well.
This is a great concept, and enhances student learning. Students may balk about it initially, but they will adapt and end up liking it better than being lectured.
I agree with the comments of my peers. I am concerned in developing a work at home attitude to the student and applying methods to reduce or eliminate distraction.
I have used the flipped classroom to some capacity previously. I am looking to transform all of my classes over to it. I want to be sure that I am taking all the necessary steps to excute it effectively.
For art classes is already a useful idea where students need to participate more around the class. The tecnic will hel in ther critique of his work and his fellow classemate.
I have used similar techniques in my courses without being aware of this concept and it has proven quite useful and fruitful for both me and my students. Now that it has been explained as a due process, I feel I can better implement the methodology behind the Flipped Classroom concpet much more efficiently, breaking down the course content into the three steps. Feedback and student interaction while performing the activities has shown positive outcomes and better overall class performance. Assessment can also be integrated more easily with step 2 when students have a chance to demonstrate their understanding of the material by executing the activity and discussing their outcomes with peers and the instructor while receiving constructive feedback in return. Will definitely adapt future courses to this method. Thank you!
Very interesting concept for my 3d printing and social media classes. The concepts taught in class are very hands-on and visual so I think the flipped classroom strategy fits perfectly.
Three basic steps are important in the process. The process before class, the process during the class, and the process of assessment after the class. The method is truly useful and student oriented.
This method is truly useful and student oriented. I have applied this kind of technique on my classes and the student retention has been susscessful.
I will implement this method of flipped lectures in my classroom.
El flipp classroom requiere de nueva planificación de cursos, y que el profesorado este listo para planificar clases teóricas, ejemplificaciones, prácticas, y recibir a estudiantes con trabajos realizados para discutir teoría aplicada y evaluar resultados. Para estar alineado al curso se debe trabajar con las actividades apropiadamente para que puedan generar un proyecto final de paso a paso. Permite un enfoque profesional en todo el desempeño del estudiante dentro del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje.
I found out that I have been flipping the classroom for some time now. But I didn't have the fondamnets so clear as I have now. Having more tools for the preparation of the class, makes a good difference in time management and the way we teach.
I like the flipped classroom concept, I plan on adding concepts each semester.
I like the idea of the flipped classroom, allowing students to prepare at home, and then come into class with a basic knowledge of the topic being covered. This allows them time to consider what we are discussing, and allows them to better understand our objectives. I will definitely try this approach to teaching.
COVID has made flipping the classroom much easier. Now that students have the ability to work at home and are getting used to working at home they are more prepared for this type of learning. Now that students are in the classsroom, this is a way to continue learning at home. The classroom piece will take out some of the frustratiuon from students not understanding and getting stuck.
The flipped classroom really focuses on learning through in class activities, while the at home portion is more for front loading basic informatio.
I'm relatively new to the flipped classroom idea. It does seem like it will take a lot of prep work, so I think I will try it out for a few modules and see what happens.
