A flipped French class

I believe flipping my classroom will enhance the students learning. It will give them a resource to use outside of the classroom to help them study vocabulary, learn grammar points and review at any time. I know I can save a lot of class time if I can get the students familiar with concepts before they come into the classroom. Then we will have more time to practice the concepts and apply them to real-life situations. I am certain it will be a real struggle to get my students to watch the videos at home. I will have to make it as easy as possible for them to access it. I'm excited to see what the outcome is from my first video.

Flipping my classroom, I can see many benefits. Yesterday I introduced One Point Perspective to my Art I. Instead of the students spending class time looking up vocabulary for the unit they could have watch a video of me introducing Middle Ages, Castle life then define the vocabulary at home. They would turn in their journals the following day. I could have started them on their drawings in class.
There are many circumstances where I could use this approach. I have used video of certain procedures of lessons for students to re-reach themselves at their leisure.

New journal article on Flipping in Science

Just saw this shared on Schoology.  Thought I'd pass it along.
