Educational Philosophy  Our Approach is that of the Growth Mindset  Abilities can be developed though dedication and hard work- brains and talent are just the starting point.  Provide environment where struggle and failure is em bra ced  We use a minor setback as spring-board to mastery understanding.  Try, Fail… REPEAT!  Constant Encouragement!  Stress the effort, not just the accomplishment

The Flipped Classroom  Jon Bergmann and Aaron Sams began the flipped classroom educational phenomena.  It started with a simple observation: Students need their teachers present to answer questions or to provide help if they get stuck on an assignment; they don’t need their teachers present to listen to a lecture or review content.  Students watched recorded lectures for homework and completed their assignments, labs, and tests in class with their teacher available.  Mr. Hampt and Mrs. McGuire teach chemistry, a problem solving class. The FLIPPED classroom seemed to be a perfect fit.

Where did the time go? (Probably #1 Reason we wanted to try Flipping) What/How/Why, What/How/Why, Engaged to Learn Engaged to Learn Ta ken from : http :/ / w w w .sha ne-m a son.com / ca tegory / flip p ed -cla ssroom /

Issues We Encountered as Teachers Making Videos  Making Videos  Technology issues Time: Planning, Before/ After  Home computer availability:  Time SET/ FLEX, Before/ After School, school, at home Class time  Place Place: Home, school, anywhere  Internet availability: Flash drive, Software: Evolves as technology DVD  Software and CCPS policies change  Smartphone/ Data plan: CCPS WiFi  Instructional Delivery  Struggling with content Platform:  Mini-lectures with small groups  Edmodo  Occasional “traditional” lessons  CCPS OneDrive  Talk with Mr. Hampt/ Mrs. McGuire as much as needed!  Weebly for Education

What FLIPPED Offers  Increased personalized tim e between EACH student and teacher  An environment where students take responsibility for their learning  A blending of direct instruction with constructivist learning  A class where content is permanently archived  Extra class time where students can struggle and fail and try AGAIN!

What we found AFTER we FLIPPED  More face-to-face time with each student  Changed role of classroom to learning spaces  Changed role of student and teacher  Allotted more time for inquiry-based classroom activities  Videos/ lectures show “how”  Inquiry activities, labs and repeated problem solving (trial and ERROR!) is w hen lea rning rea lly ha p p ens

Surprise Bonus: Flipped Mastery-Learning Model  Allowing students the opportunity to be responsible for their learning and providing a clear plan:  Teachers can offer im m ed ia te formative feedback  Teachers can differentiate to each students' needs  Students are self motivated to m a ster learning targets  Students move at their own pace and frequently move ahead  Assessments can be given as students are ready  Students can PLAN the pace of their education to better balance all their responsibilities Ex. Sports, music, drama, National Honor Society, Key Club, community volunteering, part-time job, etc.
