The 6-step guide to flipping your classroom - Daily Genius

The 6-step guide to flipping your classroom - Daily Genius | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
It’s one of the most talked-about trends in education right now. Right behind the iPad and Common Core. Flipping your classroom is a trend that doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon. That’s great, because it offers a lot of advantages for your classroom regardless of your students’ age or what subject matter
Beth Dichter's insight:

This infographic/visualization provides six steps that show how to flip a classroom. It also makes it clear that after you work through the six steps you must also review what has taken place, revise as necessary and then repeat.

The six steps are:

1. Plan

2. Record

3. Share

4. Change

5. Group

6. Regroup

But to understand what they mean by each of these you should go to the post. Flipping the classroom takes time, but today there are many locations where you can find great videos that will work for you. There are numerous tools available that help you create videos on your own, or take an existing video and add comments, questions, etc., so that it will meet your needs. If you are considering using video as a way to flip your class in the upcoming school year this post also provides links to additional resources that you may find helpful.

How to make RSA Animate style videos with your class… : Blogush

How to make RSA Animate style videos with your class… : Blogush | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
Beth Dichter's insight:

Are you interested in having your students create an RSA Animate style video? If so, this post is for you...and if you're not sure click through to the post to find links to ones at the RSA Animate site as well as one that students created. 

The author also raises a critical point: "Don’t just slap on a piece of technology, or in this case an RSA style video at the end just because you can.  It won’t magically make your unit breathtakingly awesome.  You really have to start off by asking why?  Why is this tool or method necessary for the success of this unit?"

For a look at why he chose to have students create an RSA Animate type video, or to learn how to do it in your classroom read on.
