Flipped Classroom

One of the first things we did in class today was show our Prezi Presentations to our partners and got assessed on what we needed to add or what we liked.  Once we finished that we went onto discusss a Flipped Classroom and went through a introduction phase of getting into the making a Flipped Classroom.  A Flipped Classroom inverts traditional teaching methods and delivers instruction online and outside the classroom moving homework and activities into the classroom.  Here is a info graph on the Flipped Classroom.  Some of the common uses for a flipped classroom would be when students are not present in the classroom or if slower learner needed more time to understand the concept.  One of the drawbacks is that students might now watch the intructional videos while at home and they may have multiple things to do at home.  We also discussed what we liked with the Flipped Classroom and when we should use it.  The last thing we did was try to think about something we would do for a Flipped Classroom, gather resources for what we wanted to do it on, and plan out our video.
