interaction and
personalized contact
time between students

� An environment where
students
take responsibility for
their own learning
� A classroom where students who are absent due to illness
or extra-curricular activities such as athletics or field-trips,
don't get left behind.
� A class where content is permanently archived for
review or remediation.
� A class where all students are engaged in their learning.
� A place where all students can get
a personalized education
1. Video introduces topic, class time
expands on it
2. Video interlude introduces a problem or
a challenge
3. Video introduces homework
4. Video prompts reflection
5. Students teach with video
Create an engaging, interactive
environment that is student- centered.
Make the best use of your face- to-face time with
your students.
Practice, application, and
working with content is done inside of class.
Focus on deeper meaning
and connections, not
just basic rote memorization and practice.
1. Started with the end in
mind
2. Kept it simple
3. Connected, connected,
connected
4. Used other available
resources for videos
