My journey with instructional technology has led me to a position in which I lead many professional development sessions. I often get asked to help teachers start their flipping journey so I decided to share my own, and hopefully it will provide some insight as to how you can successfully flip your classroom. At the end of this blog, I have included a presentation on two easy ways to get started flipping.

It’s well documented that ‘flipped’ lessons emphasise and develop collaboration skills more than ‘regular’ lessons. Students lead their own learning through independent research on tablets and by working in groups to solve problems and present solutions. Collaboration is encouraged and accepted as a way of discovering answers, asking peers for support or feedback and sharing findings with the group and the teacher.

As part of the EMMA project we are developing a series of MOOCs which will be delivered through the MOOC aggregator platform. Tomorrow we at Leicester are leading a webinar with partners to share best practice in MOOC design. In advance I have created a document sharing tips and hints for good design of MOOCs and a list of suggestions for teaching strategies which might be used. Here is the version to date comments and suggestions for things to add very much welcome!

El proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje para que sea realmente significativo implica la participaciĂłn del alumnado, en esta participaciĂłn el papel del docente es fundamental(guĂa, orienta, estimula....). Disponer en la programaciĂłn educativa de una serie de recursos educativos que faciliten al alumnado la comunicaciĂłn de lo aprendido resulta fundamental para que desarrollen un rol de prosumidor frente a una mera bĂąsqueda de informaciĂłn, simplificando metodologĂas tan necesarias como la clase invertida .

A quick read with useful reminders. My favorite is below. We often had tense debates in our staff meetings about failure being final in our gradebooks.
"Games are about mastering skills and players are typically allowed to keep trying until they are successful.
Recording failure into the gradebook can stifle risk taking...Allowing students to keep trying until they are successful can help them to try things they would not have otherwise tried."

YouTube is blocked in many schools. There’s no denying the fact that many school administrators want to avoid having students watch things that are, well, less than educational.

The goal of any well-constructed test is to test students’ expertise on a topic and not their test-taking skills. We need to eliminate as many flaws in our questions as we can to “provide a level playing field for testwise and not-so-testwise students. The probability of answering a question correctly should relate to an examinee's expertise on the topic and should not relate to their expertise on test-taking strategies.” (NMBE, 2001, p 19)
