What does FLIPPED LEARNING look like?

WHAT IS FLIPPED LEARNING?

• Definition: The flipped classroom model involves courses that move the traditional lecture, or content dissemination, away from face-to-face hours and into online delivery outside of class time. The face-to-face class time is used for practice and actual application rather than for introducing the content being studied. http://www.educause.edu/ero/article/online-educational-delivery-models-descriptive-view

Study

CLINTONDALE HIGH:

When we first implemented this model in the ninth grade, our student failure rate dropped by 33% in one year.

•English, the failure rate went from 52% to 19% •in math, 44% to 13%•in science, 41% to 19%•social studies, 28% to 9%

In September of 2011, the entire school began using the flipped instruction model, and already the impact is significant. During the first semester of the year, the overall failure rate at the school dropped to 10%. We’ve also seen notable improvement on statewide test scores, proving that students’ understanding of the material is better under this model.

• Have students DO things!– assignments, tasks, quizzes, address scenarios...

• Have students apply knowledge• Encourage students to work together

(collaboration)• Group students according to level• Pair stronger with weaker students where
