In attendance: Pam
Benton, Esther Gonzalez-Wright, Linda Santiago, Jane Cato, Carolina Escudero,
Marlene Ricalde
Reading: Chapters 3 & 4
Chapter 3 Highlights: have students bring in/use their own
electronic equipment, parents will learn alongside their children
Chapter 4
Highlights: Take it slowly, give yourself
time, don’t create your own videos at first—use what’s already out there, AFTER
trying this out and determining what works and what doesn’t, spend a year
recording all your live, direct instruction, use material you’ve already
created, use conversational videos with several teachers
Student
advantages: time management, ability to speed
up or rewind the lesson, individual attention from the teacher, just-in-time
instruction, know and understand standards, benchmarks, objectives, etc.,
learning is the goal (not assignment completion), no busywork—standards mastery,
improved behavior, fill in background knowledge, parents can watch/learn at the
same time
Bright
ideas: Project-based learning, Student
created content, using the videos during teacher absences and for long-term
subs.
Equipment
needs: computer, microphone, speakers,
tablet, Camtasia software, video camera, humor/jokes (at least, Pam has all
these things at her house)
Next
steps: Read chapters 5 & 6 for the
next meeting and be thinking about what class and level you want to “flip”. We’ll divide into groups next time and start
locating resources.
