Virtual Self-Reflection

Ask students to reflect on their learning Many students have no clue what their grade is. So, I simply ask them two questions:

  • What do you think your current grade it?
  • What do you need to do to improve?

Great opportunity for virtual counseling

A Solution

31

  • List the key

requirements and due dates for the course.

  • Make them sign

and return it electronically

Is Issue

How can I minimize excuses from students that they could not access material due to computer/Internet problems?

32

Backup Plan

  • Have students to identify in

advance what they will do if either their computer or Internet connections fails.

  • Post responses on a Discussion

Board for all to see.

The Flipped Classroom is Gaining Momentum in Higher Education

73

So How About YOU?

NMC Horizon Report 2015 Higher Education Edition

74

Implementation

Start Slow

“Test the water first”

  • Just one lesson
  • Just one chapter
  • Just occasionally

Eventually…every class period!

Be Flexible

Be ready to change things based on how they are received by students.

If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it

but

If it’s not working, change it

76

Hig igh Tech / Low Tech

High Tech

  • Videos
  • Online materials
  • Clickers

Low Tech

  • Group discussions
  • Live presentations
  • Classroom discussions
  • Written exercises

77

Integrate Technology

Explore ways to integrate them in your class.

  • Use blogs, discussion boards, drop boxes, online

assignments, and videos …

Use technology where it makes sense but not just for the sake of integrating technology.

78

slide-27
SLIDE 27

Flipped Learning: Pathway to Student Success 7/23/18 SACSCOC Summer Institute 2018 - Atlanta 27

Students Don’t Do Optional

  • Give points (even just a few) for any pre-

class assignment and completion rates will soar.

  • I use a simple 3-point scoring system and

check more for effort than accuracy.

79

Have fun!

Be ready for increased student engagement

  • student-to-instructor
  • student-to-student
  • both in class and out of class.

80

Quick Start Guide

  • Define what you want to do in class
  • Put material online to support (before & after)
  • Use technology where it helps
  • Videos, online discussions, online homework
  • Decide what you will do with “extra” time
  • Pacing will be faster than traditional

What if students come to a flipped class unprepared?

  • Don’t accommodate them by lecturing!
  • Let them struggle in class while others are

being productive

  • Can be minimized by

collecting and grading assignments

82

Try it, you’ll like it!

(and so will your students)
