During this session, we will:

• Introductions – speakers & attendees


• Define Flipped Classroom & Flipped Learning
• Foundations of Flipped Learning at the CSIU
• Combat Four Myths and Misconceptions
• Examine the Research
• And leave time for Q & A
FLN & CSIU
• Before we begin…

• ESAs, other
• Role, title
• General knowledge of flipped learning
To Flip or Not to Flip:
That is the question that educators need to ask

There must be a better way…….


We are moving from this…..
To this…
Whatever your reason,
ask: What is the best use
of my face-to-face class
time?
What is the most valuable use of class time?

Assessment Remediation
A Flipped Classroom occurs when direct
instruction (lecture) is moved from the group
learning environment (classroom) to the
individual learning space (home, library, bus,
community center).
Flipped Learning
Moves from a teacher-centered classroom to a
student-centered learning environment.
The process of this ideology may take
months, or even years.
Start with a lesson
Collaborate
Curate, create, hybrid
Flipped learning is a bridge, to…….
A bridge to somewhere….
• Plain ol’ Flipped classroom
• Extended lab time
• Demonstrations, presentations, conversations, debate
• Mock Elections, model Congress/UN/Supreme Court
• Art shows
• Entrepreneurial programs

• Flipped Learning leads to various teaching methods:


• Mastery Learning
• Project- or Problem- or Inquiry -based Learning
• Peer Instruction
• Socratic (silent) method
• Performances
• Writers’ Workshops
• Service learning /Community service

Don’t forget, you can flip…

Four Pillars of Flipped Learning™
As written by FLN cadre members/practitioners, not policy wonks
(No need to take notes, it’s here: www.flippedlearning.org/research)
Flipped Learning requires: A Flexible Environment
• The flipped classroom must allow for a variety of learning
modes; educators will often physically rearrange their
learning space to accommodate the lesson or unit.
• Additionally, flipped educators have to be comfortable with a
flexible learning environment in which students choose
when and where they learn outside of class. They have to
accept that the in-class time is going to seem somewhat
chaotic and noisy, as compared with the quiet typical of a
well-behaved class during a lecture.
Identifying Pedagogy and Assessments

What are my learning


goals/objectives?

How will I know if my


students are on a path to
meet—or have met—those
goals?
Redesigning the Physical Space

Does your current


physical environment
support the new
learning culture that
you have created?
Flipped Learning requires: A Shift in Learning Culture
• In the Flipped Learning model, educators are more cognizant
of the content they choose to deliver and determine what
direct instruction, or traditional lecture, can be time shifted.
• When age appropriate, students are empowered to find
content on their own, while educators help them make
connections and build their own understanding and
proficiency. Parents and community must be kept engaged
and informed for the culture to shift in this new model.
Flipped Learning requires: Intentional Content
• Educators must continually think about how they can use
the Flipped Learning model to help students gain conceptual
understanding, as well as procedural fluency when needed.
• They must evaluate what they need to teach and what
materials student should explore on their own. Educators
may adopt various methods of instruction such as active
learning strategies, peer instruction, problem-based
learning, or mastery or Socratic methods, depending on
grade level and subject matter.
Videos do not need to be perfect.
“Do you need it perfect or by Tuesday??”

You can create your own videos, use


videos that others have made, or
combine your video with someone
else’s video to make a blended video.

Collaborate with fellow educators


locally, regionally or virtually.
Flipped Learning requires: Professional Educators
• The role of the teacher is even more important and is often
more demanding in a flipped classroom than in a traditional
one. During class time, teachers continually observe their
students, providing them with feedback relevant in the
moment, and assessing their work. There is a deliberate shift
from a teacher-centered to a student-centered class.
• Also, educators must be able to connect with each other to
improve their trade, to accept constructive criticism, and to
tolerate controlled classroom chaos.
Four Myths and Misconceptions
about the Flip…
Flipped Learning is All About Videos
Flipped Learning Creates a Digital Divide
Flipped Learning Relies on Homework
Flipped Learning Propagates Bad Teaching
So what does the research say?
Again, no need to take notes, it’s free online.
Released June, 2013
Who is a typical Flipped Educator?
Survey of the FLN’s Ning, June 2012

There is no stereotype, but…


• Innovative, creative, tolerates chaos
• 85% have over 7 years of teaching experience
• 91% have flipped for less than two years
• 95% secondary ed teachers
• In suburban, rural, urban communities, schools
• 99% would use it again!
Teacher Satisfaction
Of the 450 educators who took the
FLN/Classroom Window survey (June
2012):

• 88% reported “improved” job


satisfaction

• With 46% “significantly improved” job


satisfaction

• 80% reported student attitudes


improving

• 67% test scores improvement,


particularly for AP and special needs
students
