That Flipping Classroom!

In my ED 307 class, students have been diving into the world of educational technology by creating their own flipped classroom videos. This project challenges them to design engaging, student-centered content that can be used to enhance learning outside the traditional classroom setting. Today, I’m excited to showcase the work of four students who have done an exceptional job bringing their creativity and teaching skills to life in their videos!

Exploring the Flipped Classroom Approach: ED 307 Students' Insights

In the dynamic landscape of K-12 education, the flipped classroom approach emerges as a promising strategy for optimizing classroom time. In our ED 307 course, students have delved into the intricacies of this innovative method.

Having extensively researched the flipped classroom model, students have channeled their understanding into engaging animated videos. These presentations not only showcase their hard work but also offer valuable insights into the practical application of this approach in educational settings.

Join us in exploring the diverse perspectives and creative endeavors of our ED 307 students as they unravel the potential of the flipped classroom approach.

Flipping the Classroom

 Flipping the classroom is an old concept that is recently being revisited by educators. 

Students in ED 307 have been learning how to flip a classroom and the associated benefits and misconceptions. They presented their findings in animated videos. I hope you enjoy their work!

Flipping the Classroom

ED 307 students are learning how to "flip" their future classrooms. Students submitted their findings through self-created animated videos. Overall the content was AMAZING! These students really know their stuff!

I am featuring a few videos below - these stood out not because they are "perfect" - but because they were very engaging, due to the creative slant taken. Enjoy!

Flipped Presentations

ED 307 students completed a flipped classroom lesson, after which they were required to perform some independent investigation about the topic and present their findings via an animated video. This  assignment is typically a "student favorite" in 307.

Overall the videos were really great - the content presented was "spot on" and for the many "first time" animated video makers, the videos were actually quite good. Congrats to all 307 students for their hard work.

The criteria I use to grade the flipped classroom video submissions is based on (1) following the video requirements, (2) thoroughness and correctness of content and (3) creativity. I typically find that "creativity" is where the big differences are between submissions. Taking a step outside of the box is a scary venture for many students - but their efforts are applauded in 307.

Check out these videos that I feel are "spotlight" worthy -

-          D Cornett - http://screencast.com/t/w9iIljHNXUv - very creative approach to this project. Animation needs some work – but nice first attempt.

-          R Driver - http://goanimate.com/videos/0y6zQI8BKh7o?utm_source=linkshare&utm_medium=linkshare&utm_campaign=usercontent – “outside of the box” presentation of materials. Animation needs some work, but nice first attempt.

-          Danielle Frazier - https://plotagon.com/28632 - Plotagon video, which is a relatively new animation product with some really nice features. The story line is not overly creative, but nice job with the animation.

-          A Slone - http://goanimate.com/videos/0He3elpNVarI?utm_source=linkshare&utm_medium=linkshare&utm_campaign=usercontent – Nice job with change of scenes and multiple characters and conversations

Flipped Classroom Time

Students in ED 307 ventured into the flipped classroom craze this past week. They created animated videos about the content they learned. This weeks top pick (drum roll please).....

If an educational act is to be efficacious, it will be only that one which tends to help toward the complete unfolding of life. To be thus helpful it is necessary rigorously to avoid the arrest of spontaneous movements and the imposition of arbitrary tasks.

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

Flipped Classroom Student Work

Students in ED 307 Teaching Strategies for the Digital Age were asked to create videos explaining the Flipped Classroom approach. While all students in the past have done a great job with this assignment, I found the videos this semester particular enjoyable. I'm so proud to see that these students are embracing 21st century teaching and learning and having fun along the way!

Enjoy these videos - they took a very creative approach:
