It’s one of the most talked-about trends in education right now. Right behind the iPad and Common Core. Flipping your classroom is a trend that doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon. That’s great, because it offers a lot of advantages for your classroom regardless of your students’ age or what subject matter …
Beth Dichter's insight:
This infographic/visualization provides six steps that show how to flip a classroom. It also makes it clear that after you work through the six steps you must also review what has taken place, revise as necessary and then repeat. The six steps are: 1. Plan 2. Record 3. Share 4. Change 5. Group 6. Regroup But to understand what they mean by each of these you should go to the post. Flipping the classroom takes time, but today there are many locations where you can find great videos that will work for you. There are numerous tools available that help you create videos on your own, or take an existing video and add comments, questions, etc., so that it will meet your needs. If you are considering using video as a way to flip your class in the upcoming school year this post also provides links to additional resources that you may find helpful.

The poster explains the rules associated with the various types of Creative Commons license visually and helps you pick the right license for sharing your work.
Beth Dichter's insight:

The poster relies on visuals to help students understand the various types of licenses available. Consider posting a copy of this in your classroom.
