The Flipped Classroom: Getting Started » Copy / Paste | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it

Are you thinking of flipping your classroom? Do you see a flipped classroom as watching videos? Think again. Peter Pappas suggests that a flipped classroom is "really about creating more time for in-class student collaboration, inquiry, and interaction. It's also is a powerful catalyst for transforming the teacher from content transmission to instructional designer and changing students from passive consumers of information into active learners taking a more collaborative and self-directed role in their learning."

He provides a "slide deck" that has strategies, resources, lesson and more to help you make this transition.

The Student as Historian: An Interactive TAH Webinar

This webinar explored four key elements of DBQ instruction using images, video and web-based audience responders. Download my slidedeck.

DBQ stands for document based questions. If you teach history, or any course that uses documents (which may be visuals) then there are an amazing number of resources included in the SlideShare embedded in the post. You will walk in your students' shoes as you learn "four key components" to document-based instruction:

1. The right documents.

2. Knowing how to look at them.

3. Letting students disover their own patterns, then ask students to describe, compare and defend what they found.

4. Basing the task on enduring questions, the kind that students might actually want to answer.
