https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj Our thoughts about flipping and the SMILE process en-us 2017-02-13 20:21:00 UTC 2025-10-04 08:29:36 UTC hello@padlet.com cmmoran https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153563337 How do you feel about flipping the English language arts (ELA) classroom? What aspects of ELA content would be good for flipping? Can you envision adopting a project like this one? How do digital videos help students better understand elements of a novel?]]> 2017-02-13 20:23:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153563337 peggypimiento https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746138 I think flipping can be an interesting approach to teaching, but it can't be the only means for teaching. In an ELA classroom, there will be a need to have classroom discussions and lectures to ensure your students are understanding the topic.

It gives students a chance to interact with the content at their own pace. They can watch the informational videos at home at their own pace and however many times they need. I definitely plan on using flipped videos in my future classroom because I think it will open up class time for more engaging, meaningful activities than simply listening to me talk. The topics that require a lot of student interaction, such as analyzing a text, might not work well with flipped videos, but topics like background information on a text or grammar would be good for flipped videos since they are more objective.]]> 2017-02-14 15:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746159 kimberlyn_donnelly https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746230 I enjoyed flipping the classroom because it provided a fun an interactive way to engage the students. I think students will benefit from this in the future because they are so involved with technology. I think a drawback of flipping would be the fact that some students may not have access to internet at home so they may not be able to do any work at home.

Although with a novel, an audio book can be used as a starting point for reading to help students become engaged and interested with the novel. In terms of teaching a topic, there are many options of presenting specific terminology or ideas of literature that would be otherwise more difficult for the students to understand.]]> 2017-02-14 15:29:00 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746302 hannah_r_jordan https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746473 As a future instructor, I enjoyed the flipping activity; I like that I have choices for relaying information that go beyond the classroom and go deeper into technology.  I think that vocabulary, literary elements, drama terms, etc. are good content for flipped videos because if students learn the basics at home at their own pace, that leaves more time in the classroom for practice. Time that would have been spent lecturing or drilling would instead be spent collaborating and answering each other's questions. -Hannah ]]> 2017-02-14 15:29:22 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746473 maurabowden https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746517 I like the idea of flipping the classroom because it takes students out of lecture mode in class and homework at home. Digital videos can add understanding from the teacher when it comes to themes of a novel or extra material related to the book. I certainly can envision a project like this one in my future classroom. ~Maura ]]> 2017-02-14 15:29:29 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746517 jordanhorton96 https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746703 I feel as though flipping an ELA classroom can be very effective. However, I think it would work best if students were eased into it. For example, doing a practice lesson to help show all of the students how it works would help each of them feel more comfortable with technology. I also think that students would enjoy watching a short video for homework as opposed to reading/writing for homework. However, the constraints I see to flipping is the amount of outside time it takes to actually create the video. I feel as though the time spent making the videos could easily be better used simply going over the material in the classroom. Although technology is very important for students to become accustomed to using, I feel as though flipping all the time would frustrate students that are not technologically inclined. ]]> 2017-02-14 15:29:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746703 ian_hatcher6 https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746732 The idea behind flipping a classroom is brilliant, in theory. Whereas it allows students to use the technology around them in an individual way, it is also clearly geared towards a certain age group. It also relies on all students having internet, and being at least somewhat technologically inclined. ]]> 2017-02-14 15:29:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746732 ebeckley https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746794 I like the idea of having a flipped classroom because it gives students the opportunity to use technology in the classroom, and I like being able to incorporate technology as a learning device. I also think it is beneficial for the students to show how creative they can be and it also gives them a chance to show what they have learned. - Emily ]]> 2017-02-14 15:30:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746794 peggypimiento https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153746989 Some people are visual. Having a video to demonstrate how a character reacts and what that might look like can be a good way to solidify the concept for students. Incorporating other videos that demonstrate like concepts can also be beneficial.

A definite drawback of this was some of the technological constraints we faced while doing the assignment but all in all, it was fun and engaging. ]]> 2017-02-14 15:32:19 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153747792 gabicruz3 https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153748249 So far I've really enjoyed flipping the classroom; I think it's an interesting approach to teaching. I think this idea of teaching can be used for many lessons and will help students' engagement in the classroom. Videos contribute to strong visual learners in the classroom. ]]> 2017-02-14 15:33:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153748249 sarah_dobson_96 https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153748441 I think flipping the classroom can be a useful way to save time in class and integrate different learning styles. It could be an efficient way to replace short lectures or give context while reading books. However, as someone who tends to rely heavily on in-class discussion to teach, I will probably use this technique sparingly.

Students will truly understand the information that is taught to them. I think it is very beneficial for the teacher to see what needs to be retaught because she can see what every one in her class decided to post on.]]> 2017-02-14 15:41:23 UTC https://padlet.com/cmmoran/3xdbdp9x1bqj/wish/153751950
