1. Cloning and Blending a.k.a. Modified Flipped Classroom Jordan Lenards and Tami Heiser Niobrara Public School

2. Cloning and Blending Modified Flipped Classroom What is it How it evolved for us How it Works What do the students think Advantages and Disadvantages What’s next

3. What is It? Students watch the lessons on the computer when they are ready for the lesson Most lessons are 2 to 5 min. in length. (A few are 15 min.) Students watch the lesson in the classroom rather than outside the class.

4. How it Evolved Part of Perkins Design team 4 – Collaboration between a career education teacher and a core teacher. Assigned to create a flipped lesson to use. We chose our 9 th grade and to do a lesson on the resume and application letter. ▫Jordan taught the content in English class ▫Tami taught the formatting in Info Tech class

5. How it Evolved Before doing the collaborated lesson, tried it out on Publisher lessons Had a class of 16 students that were all on different lessons. ▫Taught new concepts to the whole class at beginning of period of 1 lesson ▫Only was covering 1/3 of students  Some had already completed the lesson  Some were behind a lesson or two Was constantly running around answering questions and helping students. The teacher needed to be cloned 16 times.

6. How it Works For Info Tech, needed to be able to record the demonstration of using Microsoft Office applications (what was happening on the computer screen) along with voice explanations. First, was going to set up the iPad behind me and record over my shoulder Then, received an email from NBEA with a pdf attachment of Free Resources ▫Listed two free programs that would record what was happening on the computer screen. ▫CamStudio http://camstudio.org/ and Screencast-o-matic http://screencast-o-matic.com/http://camstudio.org/

7. How it Works Other programs found and used were ▫ezvid http://www.ezvid.com/http://www.ezvid.com/ ▫screenr http://www.screenr.com/http://www.screenr.com/ ▫bsrscreen recorder http://www.bsrsoft.com/http://www.bsrsoft.com/

8.

12. How it Works After video was made, posted it to YouTube – Unlisted Used a Url shortener to make the web address shorter for students to type in computer Had papers for all the different videos available to show students

13. What do the Students Think Did you like the lesson delivery used in the Publisher Unit? 12 out of 14 said yes Why? ▫They showed us what to do. ▫It was easier to follow along with ▫It helped me when I missed days and needed to catch up. ▫You can go back to the video whenever you need to and can pause it to go fix something. ▫It also helps because Mrs. Heiser isn’t having to run around the room all the time ▫Can type while listening to the video

14. What Students Think? Do you think Microsoft Word and Excel would have been easier to learn if you had the recorded lessons to watch? 12 out of 14 said yes

15. Advantages Allows Differentiation in the classroom ▫Students can all be working on different lessons in the same classroom Lessons are available when needed ▫Students are able to watch the lesson that they are working on ▫Students can re-watch video, or watch part of video, do part of lesson, repeat.

16. Advantages Also worked great for students joining the class 2 nd semester, but completing 1 st semester work, or students that join the class mid-semester The teacher is available to assist when needed rather than teaching the lessons ▫Teacher is more of a monitor/facilitator ▫Only have to answer a few questions on tougher topics

17. Disadvantages Not loud enough Less interaction (yes and no) Limited technology available for students ▫Other options used
