How to Start Your Students on the Flipped Experience
So yesterday when George Coe and I were teaching how to flip, Frank Franz was sitting on the sidelines and occasionally answering questions. One of the best questions was how do you get your students to accept the concept of flipping. Well Frank is more than on top of this as he has a Google Sites page you will want to check out as well as a video for students to be introduced to the concept as well as parents (above). But it is better than that as Frank is flipping his back to school night (in VA we have the parents come in and meet the teachers for 10 minutes). So Frank (and I this year) are e-mailing our parents our flipped video and then giving them a Google form for their questions. Then, for the 10 minutes we see them will give go over the questions and additional ones that come up so the parents can actually experience what their kids are doing in class. Frank is also doing standards based learning this year which he also explains in the video.
