Flip teaching is
basically a blended course, which encompasses the use of any technology to help
utilize the most amount of class time. Usually students will take home
assignments to read then the next day be lectured on the information read the
night prior. In flip teaching, students will watch videos made by the teacher.
During class time, the teacher will not lecture but help with any questions
they may have. The teacher almost then becomes a tutor in a sense. The classroom is the place where they apply
their knowledge by completing assignments and solving problems.
Pedagogy is the
first step to flip teaching. Pedagogy is as stated in Ramsey Musallam’s A
Pedagogy-First Approach to the Flipped Classrooom “the things a teacher does to help
students learn.” Lectures are quite boring therefore lack student interest.
There are more innovative ways to draw in students during class or even at home
while doing homework for class. Students have to be motivated in order to
learn. That motivation starts with interest level in the classroom with the
curriculum.
I told him that I thoroughly enjoyed his blog post. It was actually a big help to me and to my future endeavor. I made a reference to burp back education and how incorporating technology and critical thinking assignments help to reinforce the learning aspect of class.
Ramsey Musallam's most recent post was just a youtube video walking you through the steps of making a template on google docs accessible for all students. It makes it more easily accessible to the students. This way, each student doesn't have to go through and copy the public document.
I did tell him that the quality of the video wasn't the best. It was hard to see exactly what was typed on the screen, as it looked like he was using the skype feature "share screen" in the video. Though it isn't really what he did, it just reminded me of it. A better quality video would be nice and easier to follow for me because I am a visual learner. But the instructions were also verbal, so it is not impossible to follow.
