World History
Today George Coe, Frank Franz and I did a presentation on flipping the classroom. One question that always comes up is how do the students receive the idea if they have never done it before. Frank actually has his students watch a flipped classroom introductory video and then uses a Google form to answer their questions in class. What I find is that all students like how they can "control" the teacher by stopping the video and going back and forth. Having said that AP/IB students are the ones most likely to give a little flak, but the majority are on board from the get go.
