Flipping The Standards Of The Classroom

When the author of this paper began teaching seven years ago, there was a huge push for technology integration into schools. Educators were slowly weaning off of overheads and transparencies as a means to deliver content to their students. Now, many of these “old school” tools have been replaced with interactive whiteboards, one-to-one devices and computers. With the adoption of this technological push, educators are now open to a wider range of educational resources and tools used to educate their students.

This will also promote a student to work independently.Different ways of Learning-Teachers will provide more than one way for each child to learn appropriately.-Teacher will recognize that each student is different and come from a different background in life, so several outlooks on certain subjects will be used.

They encourage the students in the learning process and to take more responsibilities, such as watching the math videos in the flipped classroom. They treat students respectfully and differentiate instruction to meet all students’ needs. Teachers use whole class, small groups and cooperative learning strategies. They use a variety of activities to engage all kinds of learners, such as hands-on (labs), posters, projects, etc. Teachers develop critical thinking skills through the activities and strategies they use in the classroom. The Reading Lab Teacher had on the board the word antidisestablishmentarianism. The students had to guess what the word means. After that, they had to break down the words in multiple parts, which help figure out the meaning of this word. As a fun activity, the students had to create as many small words as possible from this word. The students shared their results with the class.

In this article it explains that flipping the classroom is where the students prepare for the lesson before class then receive feedback on the lesson. That would give the students time to ask questions. Besides a flipped classroom this article talks a bout the inverted classroom and peer instruction. The students complete worksheets and get to ask questions during class the worksheets are then chosen, at random, to be taken for a grade. Peer instruction is a new technological way for students to interact with each other. The students receive clickers that will anonymously show the answer to the questions, and then in small groups they will discuss the questions. All of these methods tend to work, but according to the article the peer instruction has the best effect on students because they are discussing with their peers.

The concept of flipped classroom has been effective in indicating better results in turning around instruction and teaching in the classroom. The old approaches employed in disseminating teaching in K-12 schools have also proven to be less effective in promoting the realization of better learning experiences and

In this technology savvy era, inventions such as the internet gives educators the ability to post online lectures that are easily accessible on sites like YouTube and are commonly used to teach students lessons in the classroom. Taking it one step further, a man named Salman Khan created a website called Khan Academy. Now students can learn the material at home by watching the video lectures online and attend school to receive help from his or her teachers and peers on the homework. Flipping the classroom will change the educational system in the future by making learning more enjoyable, helpful, and allowing students to improve upon their academic skills and communicate effectively with their fellow classmates and teachers.

As I read the O'Flaherty & Phillips (2015) “The use of flipped classrooms in higher education: A scoping review”, there were a few things that I found intriguing, although raised questions. The flipped classroom could be very economical and potentially effective, but would it be effective for everyone. O'Flaherty & Phillips (2015) did not comment on the different types of learning styles and personality of the individuals in the study. Additionally, how did the students feel about not having the ability to get immediate feedback for any questions they may have while viewing the videos outside of class.

I choose to the flipped classroom, first thought you think it’s a classroom that has their class organization of furniture moved around, but that is not it at all. After reading about the flipped classroom, I found that it is a great aspect to assist students that can’t come to class daily. This sin my opinion enables students to be able to not be fall behind in their studies, should they become ill for any unforeseen reason. But after reading the article I found a great key to making sure the students are learning.

Currently I have implanted a BYOD program at each school. I am encouraging expansion of this in order to support flipped classrooms. Flipping classrooms encourages students to come prepared to class. Assignments and materials are posted which introduces them to new topics prior to class. The United States Military Academy at West Point has been using this method of studying for years. In high school, this method of studying will help prepare students for

Classrooms across the nation are taking on a new technology tendency known as the “flipped” schoolroom, where students see lecture videos as homework and teachers use class-time for discussion. First popularized by YouTtube sensation, Sal Khan, 36 months ago, the version that was flipped developed traction way quicker than investigators had time to study it.

With the implementation of the flipped classroom and the thematic approach students would no longer conform to the traditional approach where only some students are reached. Students individual needs would be met once those approaches are effectively done in the

There have been many attempts to define the flipped classroom. The simplest definition was given by Lage (17). “Inverting the classroom means that events that have traditionally taken place inside the classroom now take place outside the classroom and vice versa”. Although straightforward this description does not accurately represent what researchers have referred to as the flipped or inverted classroom. This description would infer that the flipped classroom is purely a rearrangement of the classroom and at-home activities.

Aaron Sanns and Jonathan Bergman are the first two teachers who use flipped classroom, they provide supplying absent students with an online lecture they could watch from home or from anywhere they had access to a computer and internet including school or local library. They find

Technology has been advancing rapidly during this generation, in turn, causing members of this generation to be highly dependent on technology. The flipped classroom utilizes technology to enhance learning inside and outside of the classroom. Allowing students to learn on a device which suits their comfortability level, makes learning a subject less scary or intense. “By obtaining videos from other sources the students indicate they are more engaged and found the information refreshing,” (Schmidt) . Many teachers see the technology aspect of flipped classrooms as the deciding factor. Some teachers feel that some children will not have access the videos then resulting in students lacking the lesson. However, on the flip side teachers have combated this problem by providing students with technology when they are in the classroom. Utilizing technology in the classroom has enhanced learning capabilities, and has maximized the potential for several students. Using technology also allows students that are absent to have access to the videos online. Living in Missouri we experience a lot of miserable weather, with a flipped classroom students can continue to make progress at home with the videos online. An advanced placement chemistry class was able to almost complete a whole unit on their own when out of school for a week due to snow (Hardy) .

Flipped Learning model is being defines as an alternative model of instruction which digital technologies are used to shift direct instruction outside of the large group learning space to the individual learning space with the help of technologies, usually via videos. Teachers will usually record and narrate screen casts of work they do using their computer desktops, create videos of subjects or lessons about themselves teaching, or curate video lessons from internet site. Then, with the materials and video recorded, it then be posted online or You Tube for students to download and access whenever and wherever it is convenient. The videos or screen casts are available for students to access whenever and wherever it is convenient-at home, during study hall, on the bus, even in the hospital-as many times as they like, enabling them to come class better prepared (Musallam,2011). Flipped Learning Model has 4 important features under Pearson’s School Achievement Services (2013) which includes; flexible environment, shift in learning culture,
