Beginning to flip learning

Posted in Education, Flipped Learning, Science Lessons, Teacher Professional Learning, Uncategorized by

I am SO lucky! I’m at a Distance Education school where, flipped learning is pretty much the norm. However, until recently students have been asked to read long amounts of text in science.

This is no more as far as I’m concerned.

Yesterday, the day that changed my educational future, I discovered an invaluable web tool called Video Scribe. And began making awesome looking videos instantly.

MY FIRST VIDEOSCRIBE VIDEO on SIMPLE MACHINES:

Taking advice from the greats of video lessons I made sure that it was:

  • less than 5 minutes long
  • catchy and relevant to my students
  • animated!
  • focused on lower order thinking skills (knowledge and understanding).

Enjoy the first video I produced and I will be making all my video lessons available on my website under “For Teachers“.

  1. Hi, I’m another Central West Science teacher and I’ve been flipping for the last few years. If I can help with anything or you want to bounce/share some ideas at all let me know. Your first video is pretty great well done and keep up the top work. Great to see more of us on this side of the mountains.
