2. INTASC Standard, Description and Rationale INTASC Standard # 8 –The teacher understands and uses a variety of instructional strategies to encourage learners to develop deep understanding of content areas and their connections, and to build skills to apply knowledge in meaningful ways. Brief Description –Overview of the trend of online education and the “flipped classroom.” –Assessment of the benefits and limitations of the innovative teaching strategy. –Reviewed successes and failures that have been documented by using online teaching strategies in the classroom. Rationale –To meet INTASC Standard #8 I reflected on the individual differences of learners and how the online learning strategy may benefit or limit student learning. –I reflected on research to gain knowledge of how and when is best to use online learning to ensure students build necessary skills to succeed.

3. “The Flipped Classroom” First seen in K-12 schools in 2012. A form of blended learning in which students learn online at least part of the time while attending a brick-and-mortar school. Instructors create a video lecture, screencast, or vodcast that teaches concepts. At home and during school, students view lessons and lectures online.

4. Benefits of Online Education Makes class time more interactive. –Students engage in more practice problems Enables learners to go at their own pace and review at home if needed. Students receive feedback as they work, rather than doing work at home with no feedback.

5. Limitations of Online Education Low-income families who lack access to computers at home run the risk of falling behind. The video lecture may be poor quality instructionally or technically. Harder for the teacher to monitor comprehension. Lack of classroom discussions during lessons.

6. Successes of Online Education Allows for more authentic assessment, weighing less on students’ testing from memory and more on their ability to discuss content at deeper levels of interpretation and judgment. May have an important indirect impact on American education as one brand of digital learning. High school drop-outs have a chance finish school.

7. Failures of Online Education Students not attending to work has been significant. Not likely to produce the vast improvement in student learning that our country needs. Has only been effective in private schools and upper-income suburban schools. No research exists to substantiate its use.
