The flipped classroom involves students listening to or
watching lectures at home and working on homework or classwork during the class
time. This allows students to be able to ask specific questions during their class
time. For three of my four years in high school, my math classes had this
flipped style. I really enjoyed it because you were able to get all your work don’t
in class. Also, I was able to get any questions I had on the homework answered
as I was doing it in class. With the flipped classroom method, it allows
students to re watch lectures or refer back to them whenever they may need. This
video shows how a flipped classroom works and could be helpful for teachers who
are deciding if they want to use this method in their classroom.
Open education, context, and sources refer to things or
information that is open to the public and doesn’t require admission to access.
These typed of things are typically offered online. One main advantage to open
education is that it is free. Students will be willing to learn more if they have
proper materials and if they do not have to pay for them. Open education offers
just that for students. More information on open education can be found at this

While working on the two PowerPoint assignments, a new skill
I learned was how to disable the linear progress of the slides. I never knew
this was possible and I think it is very helpful because it makes student have
to actually work through the presentation rather than just pressing the arrow
keys. I think both of these assignments were fun because we were able to create
power points on anything we wanted. I’ve always liked making PowerPoints because
they are fun to make and don’t really seem like work.
