My Plan

14.
My Plan
• Class had been taught online for 2 years.
• Goal: adapt online course design for F2F, flipped format.
• Leverage the mobile lectures and PDFs from my online class.
• Maintain the summative assessments from the F2F format
(with minor adaptations).

• Maintain the summative assessments from the F2F format

• Remaining Questions:
• How will I be sure they do the work?
• What will we do together in class?

16.
?????????????????
• How would mobile lectures affect my students’ learning?
• How would choices affect student learning?
• Would students do the work?
• How would I spend classtime with them?
• What would their/my experiences be like?
• Would the class demand too much technology skills?
• What would the effect be on retention and student success?

VoiceThread Feedback

44.
VoiceThread Feedback
• “I liked the voicethreads the best because it helped
make me think in other ways and get different
perspectives from my fellow students.”
• “...created an environment for people to do well who
don’t always do best in a classroom environment if
they’re afraid to talk in class or if the class is run by
a group of students who dominate the conversation.”
• “... helped me to really understand the content we were
learning and also get feedback from other students and
from our professor as well.”
