When You Flip, Don't Flop - Open Lecture, University of Greenwich

Part of the Open Lecture series at the University of Greenwich.
When we "flip" our classrooms it can be a daunting experience. There is a shift in emphasis from the "teacher" as knowledge provider (Sage on the Stage) to a more equal participatory relationship (Guide on the Side). This talk will explore the use of the "flipped classroom" model as a way of making best use of people, time and technology. Using the 4E framework (Thomson, 2012) as an approach for technology enhanced learning conversations, the session will explore how the flipped classroom can enrich the pedagogic experience for learner & teacher.

9. i NMC Horizon Report: 2014 Higher Education Edition The flipped classroom refers to a model of learning that rearranges how time is spent both in and out of class to shift the ownership of learning from the educators to the students. @digisim
10. 1 Year “The flipped classroom model is becoming increasingly popular in higher education institutions because of how it rearranges face-to-face instruction for professors and students, creating a more efficient and enriching use of class time”. TIME TO ADOPTION. i NMC Horizon Report: 2014 Higher Education Edition
11. i Growth in Flipped Learning: Transitioning the focus from teachers to students for educational success. (2014) “Flipped Learning” was recognized by 96% of teachers, an increase from 74% two years prior . The number of teachers who indicated they had flipped a lesson during the school year went up from 48% in 2012 to 78% in 2014. @digisim

30. FLIPPED STORIES. Dr. Matthew Stoltzfus Chemistry Lecturer Tatiana and Zoe Dr Fus James & Michelle During Spring Break of 2011, Eric Langenderfer, a former student of mine approached me about integrating lecture videos into the classroom. ❞ flipping the classroom provides an avenue to ask the “why” questions again ❞ This blog post offers a video of their presentation at the SHIFT2015 conference at the University of Greenwich. In this Zoe and Tatiana shared the preliminary findings of using flipped learning… f How does a flipped classroom actually work? And how are teachers putting words into action to help their students learn?
31. i My Flipping Failure (Richard Thornley 2013) I gave a presentation to the entire faculty on the debacle …… As yet only I have stuck my head above the parapet – I told the unfortunate students that this was my penance. I apologized to individual parents on parent’s day. @digisim

36. 4E Framework. The 4E framework is an approach to e-learning activity that seeks to focus on the benefits of using technology in learning & teaching. Y Y Y Y Technology is being implemented to “enable” a process, activity, function or service to take place. Technology is being implemented to “enhance” a process, activity, function or service that is already happening in some form. Using technology as an “enricher” requires staff and students to think about how technology can make learning more rewarding & meaningful. Enable Enhance Enrich Using technology as an “empowerer” encourages students to take ownership of their use of technology in learning & teaching activities. Empower
