The 8 Step Guide to the Flipped ClassroomLorna Keane
For many, flipping the classroom simply involves turning the traditional classroom on its head - moving the class work home, and the homework to class. Others argue there is a lot more to flipping than meets the eye. Rather, as flipped learning pioneer, Jon Bergmann states, it’s moving from “sage on the stage” to “guide on the side.” For students, the obvious benefit lies in the ability to pause and rewind the teacher at will. For teachers, it means less time creating lectures, and more engaged students as the boring introductions are pushed out, and the fun practical work is pulled in. Fishtree makes flipping your classroom as simple and effective as possible, providing everything you need in one platform. Follow our 8 simple steps to flipping your classroom, and transforming your teaching!

Brainstorming is a process for generating new ideas in a group setting. There are traditional and advanced forms of brainstorming. Traditional brainstorming involves a group generating ideas without judgment. Advanced brainstorming uses specialized creative thinking techniques to increase the number and diversity of ideas. These techniques include random words, pictures, websites, role playing, and challenging assumptions to prompt new perspectives. The benefits of brainstorming include developing new opportunities and solutions, while the risks can be overcome with proper facilitation and techniques.
Case studies are used in training sessions to facilitate learning. They present real life decision making situations that participants discuss either through answering questions or open discussion in groups. This allows participants to thoroughly analyze and understand the case. Case studies simplify complex concepts, expose participants to real work situations, improve analytical thinking and teamwork, and provide solutions that can be references for similar future problems. However, appropriate cases may be difficult to find, present only one person's perspective, take more time than other methods, and have no single right answer. Overall, the experiential learning benefits outweigh these disadvantages.
This document discusses the benefits of gaming. It argues that gaming provides a sense of achievement rather than promoting violence. Some benefits mentioned include improving problem solving skills, multitasking abilities, and hand-eye coordination. Gaming is also said to help with attention deficit disorders and physical rehabilitation. Additionally, gaming can enhance vision, attention, memory, decision making, and teamwork/social skills. However, the document cautions against gaming addiction.
