Some study that I used to know –
How much do you remember from high school?

Some study that I used to know
(Student)
Now and then I think of what I learned in high school
Like AP Bio and British Literature
Is that igneous or metamorphic
I don’t need to write an iambic
I’ll admit I know shit about Millard Fillmore
Why did I have to learn this stuff?
It is never coming handy;
Never used it for nothing
Why did we read the Scarlet Letter?
Puritans are boring even when one is a slut

Some study that I used to know
There's actually one thing I still know
Eli Whitney he invented the cotton gin
Definitely do not need that though
Now it's just a study that I use to know
Now it's just a study that I use to know
(Teacher)
Now and then I think of all the things I taught you…
Every hand out with a Farside Cartoon appropo
You don’t want to live that way
Forgetting every word I say
You said you'd never let it go
I guess mneumonic devices just wasn’t enough for you though
You really freaking pissed me off
I worked so hard to teach you something, now you don’t know nothing
What does the conch symobolise or anything beyond the first three digits of pi?
And what about SohCahToa or asexual reproduction of the Protozoa
I guess you didn’t need that though
Now it’s just a study that you use to know
A study (I use to know)
Now it’s just a study that you use to know (I use to know, I use to know)

Math Problem:
In high school, students are in class for approximately 1,000
hours per year. How many years of school have you attended?
Approximately how many hours have you been a student in a
classroom?

Psychology Question:
Reflect on this line from the song:
“Why did I have to learn this stuff? It has never come in handy,
never used it for nothing.” On a scale from 1 (not at all) to 7
(completely agree), how much do you agree with the singer’s
sentiment? Why or why not?

What is flip?
Why flip?
How flip?

Why flip?
All kids are different and learn
differently
Students decide when they want to
watch the video, study at their own
pace, can stop, rewind, fast forward
Can challenge students at
appropriate level instead of going
for the middle ground
Frees up time to do meaningful
activities in the class
Responsibility for their own learning

Editor's Notes
The video is a a parody of Goyte’s, Belgian/Australian musician, called Some body that I used to know. It articulates some of the biggest frustrations that students and educators face being in a school.
Students watch lectures at home at their own pace, communicating with peers and teachers through online discussionsConcept engagement in the classroom

Need to provide platform for discussion amongst peers and teachers to exchange ideas and ask questions.
Unlike other social media: Cultivating specific social media. Your brand. Your members. Your control.
As a teacher, the best thing that I could ask from a student is for him/her to think about biology outside of biology time. Hope is that through this model, biology does not become some study that the student used to know.
