"If you are teaching today the same way you were teaching 10 years ago, you're guilty of educational malpractice." We’ve Flipped for Common Core Tammy Casey & Robyn Poulsen Lake Placid High School
Why we’re flipping • Need more time with students to increase student achievement. • Students are not engaged in the traditional “lecture” setting. • CCLS Standards for Mathematical Practice all promote a Flipped Classroom model. • Students can learn how to appropriately learn tools – including non-traditional math technology. • Differentiated instruction possibilities • College and Career Readiness • Student accountability
What the Flipped classroom is NOT… • It is NOT a replacement for good teaching. • It is NOT watching Khan Academy videos online • It is NOT an online course • It is NOT an unstructured environment • It is NOT students working in isolation "Good teaching cannot be reduced to one technique; good teaching comes from the identity and integrity of the teacher."
The Flipped Classroom IS… • a way to increase productive student teacher interactions. • An environment where students are responsible for their learning. • A classroom where the teacher is not “sage on the stage”, but a “guide on the side”. • Absent students do not get left behind. • A classroom where students are actively engaged. • Differentiated instruction is easy to implement.
What we are doing … • Creating our own video lesson. • Students watch the video for homework. • Offer supplemental material for lessons. • Require nightly writing and discussion. • See our students doing the math. • Work one-on-one with our students daily • Know our students strengths and weaknesses • Assign “Must Do”, “Should Do” and “Could Do” problems. (Differentiated Instruction)
Our first year with the Flipped Classroom • Successes • Students Learned Time Management and Organization. • Students Learned How to be Successful • Eliminated Classroom Behavior Issues • Students Became Independent Thinkers • Fantastic Administrative Support • Increased Communication with Students & Parents • Testing Results
Our first year with the Flipped Classroom • Failures • Assumed students knew how to take notes. • Students still don’t do homework. • Parental Support
The Future of our Flipped Classroom • Note Taking • Shorter Videos • Math XL • More Problem Solving • Increased Parent Communication
We are not alone! • Elementary School • Middle School • High School • College
Our students are becoming … Independent Thinkers & Learners Responsible College & Career Ready
