Flip your Classroom!!

I was reading an article the
other day and it was talking about flipping your
classroom. The concept is, you record yourself
giving a lesson, you then upload that video to your
website so the students can watch it for
homework; then when the students come in the
next day they are ready for the activity! It takes
the concept of homework and flips it around.
Instead of the students doing an activity at home
without your assistance, they do the activity at
school so you are there to guide them. Since the
lecture part is completed at home, you don’t have
to worry about the students not understanding an
activity. Students can view the instruction on the
computer, or any other mobile device--iPad, iPhone, SMART phone, kindle, nook, etc!
Here are the links to a few articles that discuss flipping your classroom!
