Hi Alfredo,

I'm into flipped learning and I would like to share my views through the papers I've written and some contributions to the Spanish site www.theflipped.classroom.es.

Hope you find them useful. let me know.

Best,

Laura

Laura has been very enlightening and valuable review shared links. A partie of them I find the Flipped Classroom requires that course participants know and use web 2.0 tools to create, share and deliver their products,

Very valuable.

best regards

Alfredo

Laura, ha sido muy ilustrativo y valiosos revisar los links compartidos. A partie de ellos encuentro que el Flipped Classroom requiere que los participantes en el curso conozcan y utilicen herramientas web 2.0 para poder crear, compartir y entregar sus productos,

Muy valioso.

Backward Design Lesson Plan example

Hi Alfredo,

I am in the process of flipping my classroom.  I am putting the teaching (ie. learning) of action research into a set of tutorials.  Then I work with my students on their projects when we meet synchronously.  That way I don't waste valuable group time with giving information or explaining processes.  Instead I ask questions to the students with their work.  You can see the flipped classroom materials at ccar.wikispaces.com/AR+Tutorial

 I also have a student who is doing action research in flipping her government class and it was a quite successful.  She demonstrated that students test scores remained high while she was able to carve out more time for project based learning.  You can write directly to her to find out more.  Here name is Katherine Korte  I am sure she would enjoy sharing her process with you.

I just read a short review of research where flipping the classroom is one of the strategies being explored by a colleague who does very insightful research, Eric Hamilton... I share a shorter story of the research and recommend you contact him for more information. 

A cyber-ensemble of inversion, immersion, collaborative

workspaces, query & media-making in mathematics classrooms

By: Eric Hamilton, Ph.D., Professor of Education, GSEP Division, Pepperdine University

This academic year, our research group has started a new project with National Science Foundation support. The project is an effort to study one way to “supercharge” a high school classroom environment with various technologies aimed at promoting deeply immersive experience with mathematics and science. Our aim is satisfying, and even playful but certainly joyful and deep learning.

This is a design study that takes place through multiple iterations and adjustments at Cabrillo High School in Long Beach and Spring Valley High School in Las Vegas. Additionally, aspects of the project are being tested with partners in Finland and in Namibia, and we are in conversations with schools in both California and Florida for extending the project.

The “cyber-ensemble” they are testing

1) classroom flipping – whereby students view discussions and lectures at home and then do “homework” in class. It is a cornerstone element because it opens class time and shifts the  dynamics of classroom activities and assignments. It places emphasis on both engagement and the interaction between teacher and students to promote learning.

In addition to classroom flipping, this cyber-ensemble features

2) “collaboration workspaces” based on software permitting teachers and students to see and interact with each other’s work;

3) natural language dialog software with animated avatars to promote question-asking and digital resource access through desktop or mobile interfaces;

4) video creation,

5) editing and mixing tools, including screen capture to permit creation of interactive digital video for both classroom instruction 

6) production of the materials students review outside of class. 

 The project’s two leading research questions investigate whether and how the cyber-ensemble fosters deeply absorbing and effective experience in learning, and the nature of insights that the ensemble can furnish about important dynamics associated with learning, such as learner engagement, immersion, flow, question-asking, and self-explanation. A video of aspects of this work in

Excellent Margaret! So glad to read you're working with f.c. Thanks for your detailed reply.

Margaret thank you very much for your comment and especially by the example of class in the flipped classroom materials at ccar.wikispaces.com/AR+Tutorial.

Soon I will write to Katherine.

Muchas gracias Margaret por tu comentario y en especial por el ejemplo de clase en the flipped classroom materials at ccar.wikispaces.com/AR+Tutorial.

Pronto escribiré a Katherine.

Congratulations on the project in Long Beach, in Vegas and especially in Ghana

Felicitaciones por el proyecto en Long Beach, en las Vegas y en especial en Ghana

I have enjoyed using the flipped model in the classroom to focus instructional time on active-learning strategies that emphasize student-centered learning. Students do not necessarily have to use technology outside of class. Instead the idea is for class time to focus on more dynamic and engaging instructional strategies. Students may read the material and answer questions or complete writing assignments at home. My in class time then focuses on role-plays, simulations, debates, games, and problem-solving group work. These activities have made the learning experience much more dynamic overall. Good luck!

Wendy do not disagree with you about the possibility of not using technology for a flipped experience but the inclusion of technology can achieve in less time learning objectives with an additional collaborative feedback and more and in shorter times experiences. It allows to learn what happens in the process of learning antesa students arrive to class and this gives us advantages to enhance the learning experience teacher.

Thank you very much for your opinion
