I completely agree that the flipped classr...Brian,<br /><br />I completely agree that the flipped classroom idea, when done correctly, is terrific. Dan Meyers, Mathalicious (Karim Ani), Yummymath (Brian Marks) are examples of this. But, the model that seems to be promoted is Khan Academy type videos, which are the epitomy of what I am referencing and what, unfortunately, I think is being held up as the model. That I guess is my fear - not the flipped idea, but the 'videos' we are using. <br /><br />I am with you on working together - trying my best to support teachers as well as I can in my own small way!!Karen Greenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11317571405895985345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7711118604724811114.post-21360386832897258652012-04-10T11:49:21.534-04:002012-04-10T11:49:21.534-04:00I agree with your anxiety about the flipped class ...I agree with your anxiety about the flipped class done wrong the majority of the time. I hear horror stories of teachers playing video and then sitting back and reading the newspaper (and no, that isn't hyperbole). But, instead of being afraid or completely turned off by the idea, we need to support those teachers interested in using it so they use it <i>well</i>.<br />One of the best flipped resources I always show is Dan Meyer (I'm sure you're familiar with him). The point being that video in flipped classrooms is <i>not always</i> instructional. I use it for extension just as much as direct instruction. So, again, let's work together to share a true flipped class rather than the same old thing with a new hat.Brian E. Bennetthttp://www.brianbennett.org/blognoreply@blogger.com
