1. Introduction
 Change: To introduce flipped classroom models in
all Science classes at Harwood
 Audience: Science Department
 What I want from Audience: Participation in a trial
period where all educators try out 3 flipped
classroom lessons per course

2. Do you want…
 To minimize classroom disruptions?
 More time to work with students in class?
 Students to make up missed lectures easily?
 Students to be engaged in class?
 Students to have support while working on
homework and activities?
 Students to be able to learn at their own pace?

3. ThenTry the…

4. What the Flipped Classroom Model can do
for you
 Frees up class time for having discussions, doing
activities and labs, and working collaboratively on
problems
 Gives the teacher more time to check in with and help
all students during class time
 Allows students to watch the lecture at their own pace.
They can pause and re-watch at their own leisure.
 With minimal lecture time during class there is less time
for students to be disruptive

5. Examples of How to do a Flipped
Classroom
 Create videos that explain content or present a
demonstration
 Find already made videos on Khan Academy or
Crash Course
 Pair videos with readings from the text for students
to complete at home
Examples of Chemistry Flipped Classroom Videos

6. What toWatch out for when Flipping your
Classroom
 By flipping your classroom you do not magically
become an amazing teacher- but it is one strategy
to utilize class time more effectively. You still need
to continue to embed other best practices.
 Some students may not have internet access at
home. Make sure students who do not have
internet will have a study hall between when you
assign it and when it is due.

7. Try it out!
 Create 3 lessons per course that can be
implemented through the flipped classroom model
between now and the end of the first semester
 Be prepared to discuss issues you encountered as
well as things that you thought worked well. Please
share/link all lessons on the Science Department
Google Site
 Next Department meeting will be spent working on
Flipped Classroom Lessons
