Practical Applications for the Flipped Classroom --> Engaging Pedagogical Models
Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.
I like the concept of "backward" approach in designing lessons. What content must be learned? What are the objectives in this content? How do I break down these objectives into learning "bites"? What methods will I utilize to show the student shows mastery of each objective? Etc.
When considering doing a flipped classroom, I hadn't thought about all of the potential approaches, but after learning about PBL, GBL, and IBL, I have some practical options to help me implement some of this material into my classroom.
Still having a hard time gasping which larning base I like due to my old fashion way of lecturing. I do strongly agree that you have to look at the class as a whole to see what is the collective attitude in learniwng is of the class
I definitely lean towards problem-based learning. The list of questions provided to assist in the flipped model was helpful, and the note about creating a physical learning environment that fosters collaboration was enlightening.
PBL is student-centered and student-driven. It makes them an active participant in their learning, rather than a passive bystander.
I appreciated the information about Understanding by Design. Starting with the outcome or goals of the class in mind and then figuring out which assessments to use and finally developing the learning activities is a great way to ensure that the learning activities and assessments will actually meet the goals of the class by the end of the semester. I find myself often starting with reviewing text books and developing lesson plans, which makes it harder to ensure that outcomes are actually being met. I can definitely see how the UdB method would be more effective.
I like it didnt know what some of it meant but now i do so i can apply it for myself
It was interesting to consider the flipped classroom and starting planning by looking at outcomes first. This makes sense in a flipped or blended program. To keep students accountable for their independent learning, the game-based and inquiry-based learning examples seem very relevant.
This has been interesting to hear about backward planning in a flipped classroom. Looking at outcomes and what you want to accomplish as your plan makes sense in a flipped or blended program.
Problem base learning will help my students mimic their real life experience
How to help students prepare for situations which may occur in their future lives by applying game based learning methods in a flipped classroom. This method will challenge the student to do research, develop questions and use own experiences (or others) to impact learniong.
Giving a group of students a task to complete with a set of guidelines. To be completed in an agreed time period. I can only course correct to keep them on track.
