Flipped classroom <>flipped school library

Flipped classroom <>flipped school library | Digital Literacy & 21st Century Learners | Scoop.it

Flipping the classroom changes the place in which content is delivered. If the teacher assigns lecture-type, frontal instruction–in the form of video, simulations, slidecasts, readings, podcasts–as homework, then class time can be used interactively. The class becomes conversation space, creation space, space where teachers actively facilitate learning.

Flipping frees face-to-face classroom time for interactive and applied learning, activities that inspire critical thinking, exploration, inquiry, discussion, collaboration, problem solving.  So, the classroom and the library become more learner-centered.

A new study further bolsters this idea as it’s found that digital devices are saving students time, are widely accepted, and are actually making students more likely to do their homework.

Top Websites that provide Educational Video Tutorials for Teachers | Digital Literacy & 21st Century Learners | Scoop.it

"Video tutorials are great way to stimulate students cognitive capabilities and elicit more engagement from their part. But not all the teachers have the necessary skills or time to go about creating tutorials for their students and this is why we should always make sure we have a bunch of ready-made tutorials at our disposal for rainy days."

Digital citizenship basics

It doesn't get more simple than this very short simple presentation.  This is a very good start!  If you want to learn more about this topic, you can find many resources about digital citizenship under "DML" in my tags.  I used DML to stand for Digital Media Literacy.   I have some other resources under "Participation" that may relate in many cases.
