Make Thinking Visible with the Flipped Classroom Model

Date: Wednesday, April 4, 2012
Time: 2:00pm ET / 11:00am PT
Duration: One hour


From Harvard University to inner city Detroit to rural Colorado; from basic introductory classes to AP courses, teachers are experiencing significant improvement in student achievement transitioning to the ‘Flipped Classroom’ model. A side benefit is that teachers save time.

The flip model represents a merger of:

  • The Socratic method where students are responsible for meaningful conversation while in class
  • Research in cognitive science that shows students need immediate feedback
  • The emergence of powerful learning online communities where student thinking can become more visible and mutually supportive

The flip model represents a significant cultural change in the traditional classroom and changing roles of student and teacher.

Attendees will:

  • Learn how to make thinking visible
  • Discover the steps to get ready to shift to The Flip
  • Learn what not to do when getting started with the Flipped Classroom model
  • See how a Flipped Classroom actually saves teachers time
  • Find out how to anticipate and mitigate parent concern

    Why do I get the message, “You need to install or upgrade Flash Player to view this content, install or upgrade by clicking here.” when I have the current Flash Player already installed?

    Is there anyway to get access to a feed that doesn’t time out after 16 or so minutes? Each time i watch this, i can’t get past the first 16 minuts. Each attempt to move past forces the video to start over again from the beginning… Help!

    It is hard to note information when watching Dr. November video because I could not go back a few minutes or so and re-wind what he said. The irony is that he is talking about student being able to re-wind the video and hearing it again. Is there another plaform I could use to review the video again with more controls?
