Flipping the Classroom

Bergmann and Sams, 2012 Flip Your Classroom: Reach Every Student in Explains 10 ways that flipping benefits students. https://joaomfjorge.files.
Every Class Every Day, 2012 Highlights how it helps students who are absent wordpress.com/2015/03/flip-
to learn the material, and how it provides a your-classroom.pdf
review resource for students who need it.

Also discusses the "flipped mastery model,"

which integrates differentation with the flipped
model so that students master the curriculum at
their own pace.
 Staker, Heather; Horn, Michael Classifying K-12 Blended Learning, May 2012 Explains different styles of blended learning,
B., 2012 including flipped learning and the station-
rotation model. Together, this is a hybrid that
forms an in-class flip.
Jon Bergmann, 2012 Flipping the Elementary Classroom, Suggestions that stand out for me are: http://jonbergmann.
jonbergmann.com 1. Think of the flipped class as another com/flipping-the-elementary-
technique in your arsenal. classroom/
2. Start with a lesson that students struggle with
and make a short video. An easy way to
determine what to make a video of is to ask
yourself: What do I constantly have to repeat or
what do kids really need extra help on?
3. Keep the video to no more than 10 min and
shorter if you have younger kids. I think the rule
of thumb might be 1-2 min per grade level.
4. You might also not assign the video as
homework, but make it a center in your
classroom for students who struggle and/or
need extra help.
