Another great assignment we did in this course was from Module 5, called Feedback on a Flip. I was interested in flipped learning well before this class, and unknowingly had even used it in my teaching a tiny bit. I was very excited about this assignment because I L.O.V.E. Flipgrid and I knew it could be the perfect tool for this coursework.
I had already made a quick how-to video for parents to teach them the many ways their child is learning long division. Even after many parents encouraged me to make the videos because they were unable to help their child with homework (“new math” versus “old math”). I enthusiastically spent an hour at school over the weekend to make the videos...and then no one used them! Up until this assignment, the only views the videos had were my own. That is so frustrating! So, I was happy to receive some feedback about one of the videos and so glad to know I am on the right track with flipped learning. My peers provided really useful and honest evaluations of my video, which will give me a head start as I try to implement flipped learning in the near future. Learning more about flipped learning was really exciting to me since it was already a topic I was interested in. The resources provided in this course were helpful. I especially liked how the 8th grade math teacher explained in her videos how to "do" flipped learning and described some of the challenges that may go along with it.
