Explain Everything
How NOT To Start A Flipped Classroom
• Start with a different grading system
• Self paced from day one
• Student-picked groups all the time
Basics of Flipped Classroom
• Content delivered at home instead of in classroom.
• Show up to class to apply what students learned at home.
• Teacher is now a guide; more 1:1
• Students continue to “master” content.
Mastery of Content: Philosophy
• Mental adjustment of teacher
• Students no longer passive learners, teacher not a lecturer
• Students don’t receive zeros for missed work
• Students receive weekly grades
• Students direct their own learning
• Students are not allowed to move on until they demonstrate mastery of current content
Mastery of Content: Management
• Grading
• Participation - Progress through unit; learning objectives; 10%
• Homework - List of assignments to complete each week; % completed; 30%
• Quizzes - Inquiry based or task-oriented (labs, investigations, papers, projects, ect) counts as quiz grade. Graded on pre-designed rubrics. 20%
• Exams - Students still need to learn to take tests. I use written tests, but can use online systems. Students do not move on until they reach 80%. May also use projects, labs, or other self-designated and approved assignments. 40%
Mastery of Content: Management
• Managing Class
• Students work at own pace.
• Accelerated students can work ahead and others get more individualized help.
• You have to know content because it will all be called on at one point or another.
• Not an excuse to stop teaching.
• Instead of a corporate body of students, teaching one-on-one, answering specific questions and correcting misconceptions as they aries.
• You will be busier that ever, but student achievement improves because they can get all personal attention.
My Explore-Flip-Apply
• Start with a hooking activity - SQ3R or KWL
• Have students read and answer questions.
• Watch video at home and fill in gaps (if any)
• In class, students either answer critical thinking questions, role-play, read and analyze primary sources, lead discussion groups, ect
• Take quizzes or tests, when ready.
Example: 5 Themes of Geography Project
• Brainstormed 5 themes of geography
• Showed a video over farming
• Discussions over what theme/themes fall into farming
• Watch vodcast over the 5 Themes of Geography
• Assign groups to a theme
• Students then created an activity to explain their theme to second graders
Fishbowl Example
• Causes of the American Revolution.
• Divided students based on academic ability.
• Each was given different primary sources to causes of American Revolution.
• Worked in groups to digest information and summarize importance of their event.
• Each had a representative in Fishbowl to discuss their sides viewpoint, and others took notes on how what was said.
Inquiry-Based History
• Having your students do the work of historians in class.
• Primary/secondary sources about an era/event.
• Analyze past by creating meaning, synthesize information and create their own understanding of past.
• Connection to current events.
• Allows students develop skills are essential to democracy and building deeper understanding.
