In an effort to raise student performance in a difficult course, San Jose State University has turned to a “flipped classroom” format, requiring students to watch lecture videos produced by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and using class time for discussion. And initial data show the method is leading to higher test scores, university officials announced this week.

The flipped classroom is a new teaching concept that many schools and districts are using to engage students with more teacher-student interaction and more differentiation of instruction. Harnessing technology such as online videos, recorded lectures, podcasts, learning management systems, and synchronous online classrooms, the teacher’s role is transformed from a deliverer of information to an involved adviser who uses class time for collaborative activities that yield a deeper understanding of the course concepts. Join us for this webinar to learn more about blended learning and the concept of the flipped classroom, and to hear how Piedmont City School District in Alabama and Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School have both implemented it different ways to create a more personalized education experience and to increase student success.

We all know what a traditional college classroom looks like: students in rows stare glassy-eyed at the professor who drones on, paying more attention to the equations he’s writing on the board than the students he’s supposed to be teaching. Via Peter Mellow

We also realize there is a lot of mis-information about the Flipped Classroom and quite a bit of controversy about whether or not this is a viable instructional methodology. Via Dr. Susan Bainbridge, Peter Mellow

For this session, Laine will share her experience flipping her Fundamentals of Linguistics class this spring semester for the first time. There were many surprises in what occurred when she decided to try the flip. She hopes to generate discussion on the rationale for the flipped classroom, what students and courses are best suited for this model and how it has worked out in her class. One of her students, Edith Ramirez-Lopez, will join in to provide the learner perspective. Via Kim Flintoff

Infusion of technology enables anywhere, anytime learning that is no longer limited by the four walls of a classroom or building. Purposeful technology integration liberates teachers from being deliverers of content and, instead, allows them to be facilitators of deep, individualized learning for all students.

Digital tools cultivate engagement and encourage mastery by allowing for highly individualized instruction.
In a nutshell, the flipped classroom takes the content traditionally disseminated in the classroom, often in the form of lectures, and translates that information into online videos and other digital formats, letting students digest that content outside of the classroom. Class time is freed up to focus on inquiry, interaction and applying knowledge. In many cases, this means that what used to be classified as homework is now becoming class-work.

Educators experimented with flipping the classroom long before Khan started shooting video.
In 2004, a former hedge fund analyst began recording and posting videos of himself explaining some math techniques. He created the material to help tutor his young cousin. Rather than keeping it private, however, the analyst posted the videos to YouTube. By 2012, Salman Khan had more than 3,000 lessons online, 140 million views, and a reputation as an education guru.

There are few more contentious issues in thinking about education today than the place of technology in the classroom. For all of us parents struggling to figure out how to respond to the inevitable request from our children to use the ipad or the iphone—to play Brainquest, of course—there is an obvious trade off: No doubt, our kids learn math and reading with the ipad. And yet, there is something that seems wrong as they spend more and more time in front of the screen, interacting with a machine instead of with other human beings. As efficient and productive as that machine is at teaching, it thinks and acts like the electronic circuits that it is. As parents, we can't help but worry what is lost as our children spend an increasing amount of time engaged with machines—even educational machines. Via Learning Futures

Abbott said research shows the flipped classroom approach is a more effective way for modern-day college students to learn because it takes advantage of all sorts of technological tools students have at their disposal.
"We went through traditional education where a professor stood up there and talked to us. The research shows that that's not effective for this generation of students," Abbott said.
