Making connections

In a flipped learning setting, teachers make lessons available to students to be accessed whenever and wherever it is convenient on digital devices, allowing for more personalised learning. Teachers can deliver this instruction by recording and narrating screencasts of work they do on their computers, creating videos of themselves teaching, or curating video lessons from trusted Internet sites.

TRADITIONAL CLASSROOMIn the traditional classroom, the teacher delivers new learning to the students face-to-face. Students listen, interact, take notes, and then consolidate new knowledge during homework or followup tasks.FLIPPED CLASSROOMIn the flipped classroom, students do the basic learning prior to working with the teacher and then cover the applied learning and any problems in class. Students access a teacher-created website and/or watch teacher-created/sourced videos on their devices. They are able to stop and rewind the information as often as they need until they understand the concept.

Ashhurst School Principal, Heath Chittenden speaks about the flipped learning global standards project and how they have created a standard so that flipped learning looks the same no matter where in the world you are based.

• Teachers can source instructional videos from the Internet; such as Teacher Tube, Khan Academy
• Teachers can create digital content by recording themselves, capturing content online (screencapture) using tools like Quicktime, Explain Everything
• Content is stored digitally for students to access online using platforms like Google Sites or e-Portfolios like Seesaw
• Students engage with the content, rewind as needed
• Teachers provide further support and to help students apply their learning.

Possible strategy

Students do the basic learning prior to working with the teacher, then cover the applied learning and any problems in class. Students access teacher-created or sourced content on their devices. They are able to stop and rewind the information as often as they need to and have more control over their learning. Learning becomes more personalised and class time is freed up for:• student-centred learning activities• inquiry-based learning• project-based learning• collaborative work• teacher-assisted learning.

Teachers prepare, source or create content that is presented to students prior to engaging with the teacher to clarify, strengthen or deepen learning.

Principal, Heath Chittenden explains how they got teachers and parents prepared before rolling out flipped learning in their school. “Flipped learning is really important to be a school-wide focus because it actually is a pedagogical change to how you approach teaching.”

Making connections

Flipped Learning is a global pedagogical movement that enables students to access instruction anytime, anywhere on their digital devices. Technology is a catalyst for this shift or trend towards the Changing role of teachers, which is marked by a move from a “one- size- fits-all” approach of delivering and receiving knowledge, to an approach that honours the individual and their diversity (CORE Ten Trends 2019 PDF, p22).

In this video, teachers, Sara and Emma, talk about the biggest changes they have seen in their teaching since they started using flipped learning. “I think for me the biggest changes that it’s had are it’s more individually centred and it’s changed my position within the classroom.”

In this video, Michael Fullan describes the flipped classroom. Teachers become activators or change agents, students become partners in learning, and technology fuels communication and collaboration.
