Description
This Flippped Classroom Quick Start Guide will help you FLIP things around in your secondary science classroom. The research is in and the Flipped Classroom is proving to be one of the most promising initiatives we’ve ever seen in education.
Especially now with distance learning becoming an important alternative to being in the classroom full-time, it’s critical that we have a flexible plan that includes high quality digital content.
Flip your classroom if you want to:
- increase student achievement
- improve student engagement
- provide more time for collaboration and hands-on activities
That’s just a peek at a long list of benefits of the flipped classroom.
The basic idea is to “flip” the learning experiences that are done in the classroom and at home. What does that look like? Well, there are three key ingredients:
- High-Quality Online Video & Digital Content Provided by the Teacher
- Notes and Questions to keep Students Accountable for at-home Assignments
- Engaging Classroom Activities that Facilitate Critical Thinking and Lead to Content Mastery
Whether you’re an experienced flipper, just curious about flipping, or in serious need of some distance learning help, Science Island is here to give you ideas, resources, and encouragement so your classroom can experience a FEARLESS FLIP.
Aloha and Happy Flipping!
