Week 5 Slideshare Assignment
Wilkes University
2. What is a Flipped Lesson?
• Students watch an
online lesson for
homework to learn the
basics of tomorrow’s
topic
• Teachers work with
students on practice
problems/prompts/topics
during class time
3. Why a Flipped Lesson?
• Students can ask
questions as they
happen, rather than
thinking of them at
home and waiting until
the next day
• Teachers can be a
“guide-by-their-side” for
students as they • Changes up the
practice concepts
monotony of the day-
to-day routine
4. Where did the idea come
from?
• Two Colorado
Chemistry teachers
wanted to tape and
post lessons on line
for absent students to
view
– Found that even
students who missed
class were using the
lessons to review or
reinforce
5. How will it go over?
• When tried in my
classroom, I had some
angry parents and
complaints
– “[Student] can’t ask
questions during the
lesson.”
– “But we send them to
school so you can teach
them there.”
• Other parents and students raved about
it, and loved the in class attention to
individual help for students
