In our schools, students have grown accustomed to the traditional methods of instruction where the teachers stand in front of the class lecturing the same thing to all the students present. Then, just at the end of the class, students are given homework to reinforce the learned concepts at home where they get little or no added support. As a result of this way of teaching, students are just “passive” listeners on the receiving end of a one-way communication process that encourages little critical thinking. In order to change this trend of passive listening, teacher around the globe employ technology to implement a blended learning method that “frees up” class time for collaborative activities by shifting lectures out of the classroom and on the internet. This method, known as a "flipped" classroom, combines the benefits of direct instruction and active learning to engage students in the educational process. The flipped classroom model was pioneered by two chemistry teachers, Jonathan Bergman and Aaron Sams, who inverted the traditional teaching methods by delivering lectures online as homework and moving activities into the classroom. By flipping thier lessons they were able to spend class time working directly with students on more engaging activities giving them support and hands-on instructions. There are many ways that a classroom can be flipped, but the underlying premise is that students review lecture materials outside of class and then come to class prepared to participate in instructor-guided learning activities. In the presentation I will explain the flipped classroom model and compere it with the traditional classroom. We will look at what the flipped classroom enables the teacher to do as well as discuss the benefits of the flipped classroom for the students. Lastly we will look at how I implemented the flipped classroom and made it work for my elementary students.

The flipped classroom
- 1. The Flipped Classroom The Flipped Classroom Tailoring the classroom to the 21st century learners 8th – ELTAM – IATEFL – TESOL International Biannual conference Skopje, November 2014 Presenter: Ljubica Ruzinska English language teacher, primary school “Blaze Koneski”, Skopje
- 2. Topics What is the flipped classroom? Traditional vs flipped classroom What the flipped classroom enables the teacher to do? What are the benefits for the students? How do I implement the flipped classroom with my students?
- 3. Where it started…..? Students learning at different paces (slow, medium, fast); Students missing important pieces of information from class even though they were “present”; Students being absent (sick, sports, ect) and missing lessons; Students not completing homework fully or correctly at home because they “forgot” how to do it from class (or simply copying from a friend)
- 4. Where it started…..? Teacher spending most of class time lecturing and not giving students a lot of time to practice on their own without support; Teacher spending many extra hours tutoring and re-explaining to students who didn’t “get it” in class.
- 7. Who is it good for? Struggling learners; On grade level students; High achieving students; Gifted students; Students who have “checked out”; Students who love to learn.
- 8. In the flipped classroom Responsibility for learning flipped from teacher’s hands to students’ hands; Face to face time flipped from teacher-focused to student-focused; Focus in class flipped from lower-order to higher-order thinking (low-level Bloom’s: at home via video, podcast, website ect; high-level Bloom’s: during class time with teacher & peer discussion and support).
- 10. What “flipping” enables me to do?
- 11. What “flipping” enables my students to do? Students can pause, rewind and re-watch lessons, learning at their own pace Students can access the content for their class anytime, anywhere on any device. Students receive instant feedback and teachers can spend more time helping students and explaining difficult concepts.
- 12. Student benefits and goals Don’t have to worry about… Being absent and missing content, can access anytime, anywhere; Lessons being taught too fast to comprehend; Getting stuck on homework problems with no support; Being bored because the content is too easy; Forgetting old material and having no way to re-access it. Can focus on… Being an active, responsible learner; Working and collaborating with classmates to deepen understanding; Being in charge of their learning and their success in class; Working with concepts they need more support in understanding; Manage their time to meet given learning objectives.
- 13. What do students now do at home? Watch a 5-10 minute long video; Take notes and copy examples; Pause, rewind, fast forward as needed At the practice parts in the video, pause and complete the exercises in the Google form. After watching the video answer 2 questions (what you understood most, which part you still confused about)
- 14. What do students now do in class? Work on differentiated activities given by the teacher Get individual or small group help Do concept quizzes on Edmodo Work on short-term or long-term projects

- 16. Final thoughts on “the flip” “The flip” is only one tool in our “toolbox”, but it can be a powerful one; The flipped classroom is about increasing the 1:1 time with the students; Students need to be transitioned, this is a change for them and change is not always easy; Don’t look at the flipped classroom as a way to get more material covered. Yes you will have more time so you can “fit in” more topics, but it would be better if you covered things in more depth; “Flipping” can work in any subject area and any grade level; Using this ideology has the ultimate goal of increasing students’ understanding and ownership of the content; You do not have to fully flip your classroom to receive the benefits of “time-shift” in instruction; There is no ONE flipped classroom, take pieces of everything you see and make it work for your students in your classroom.

- I’m Karen May and I teach at Blinn College in Bryan Texas. I’ve been teaching at Blinn for the past 13 years and currently serving as Division Chair for Business. Prior to that, I was in Killeen ISD teaching high school for 25 years. My goal for today is to be able to convey to you the importance of the find of the Flipped Classroom. Or at least excite some interest in reading more about it.
- Here are our topics for today.
- Sometimes called reverse instruction or even blended instruction. I first started using some of the techniques in flipped classroom when I was teaching blended classes. Our programs were small and didn’t always have enough to run the class so I came up with the idea to blend them. One of the classes we’d meet with on Tuesday and one on Thursday. When we weren’t meeting with the class, they would have things to do outside of class that were online. Unfortunately, at that time, we hadn’t started the video craze, but that came soon enough. I had also taught in an accelerated block schedule at the high school and thought that it would have worked well for that too. Using Technology – we’ll talk about some of the different technologies. Get to spend time interacting with students instead of at the front of the room on a board or at a lecturn. Normally we’d teach the students concepts then have them do guided or independent practice and assign homework. In the flipped idea, instruction takes place outside of the classroom and the activities take place in the classroom.
