Welcome to our session on flipped curriculum. If you have any questions you want to ask during this session, below is a link to a Google Form we will use as a parking lot for any/all questions.
Have a question? Click HERE!
Parts of this session will be delivered with a flipped model. Below you will find lesson videos I have created that cover different aspects of developing a flipped curriculum.
After you have watched the video, click on the link below and answer the question:
"How did watching that video compare to if I had just presented it directly?"
LINK TO ANSWER QUESTION
Below are several videos that will show you how, click by click, how to make lesson videos, post those lesson videos online, and create self grading online assessments to support flipping your class.
First off is a video on how to make lesson videos using Screencast-o-matic.
Next is a video on how to use EdPuzzle to post your lesson videos online so your students can watch them.
One of the keys to making a flipped classroom work is frequent formative assessment. In order to facilitate frequent formative assessment without getting swamped by grading I use online autograding assessments. I use Google Forms to make my assessments. Below are videos showing you how to make assessments in Google Forms and how to use the add-on Flubaroo for those assessments to auto-grade.

How to make animated Powerpoints
Most of my videos are simply narrated Powerpoints. I make a Powerpoint that covers the necessary content and then I make a video of me going through the Powerpoint recording me while I teach. If you use Powerpoint as the basis of your videos, it is very helpful if you use custom animations so your bullet points come in one at a time. Below you will find a link to a video that will show you how to make animated Powerpoints.

How to make videos using Screencast-O-matic
Once you have made your Powerpoint, or whatever will be the basis of your video, its time to record that as a video. Making videos is very easy using free software. Below you will find a link to a video that will show you how to use screencast-o-matic to make videos for free. I've also put in a direct link to the screencast website.

Powerpoint isn't the best option for some contents (e.g math), another option for making videos is Microsoft OneNote. Below you will find a link on how to make videos using Microsoft OneNote

How to download Youtube videos to your computer and embed them in Powerpoints
Youtube has many useful video clips that can really add to the value of your video. Below you will find a link to a video that will show you how to download Youtube videos and embed them into your Powerpoint presentations.

How to edit videos using Windows Movie Maker
After you have made videos you may need to edit them, or update them. Using Windows Movie Maker (a free program) you can edit your videos. You can remove sections, you can join two videos together, or you can remove a section of an existing video; record a new section and put that into your original video. Very useful tool. Below you will find links to two videos that will show you how to do all that using Windows Movie Maker

How to upload and share videos
Once you've made your videos, you need to upload them so your students can view them. Below you will find a link to a video that shows you how to upload videos to Google drive so students can view them on any device that can connect to the internet.

How to make online self-grading quizzes using Google Forms and Flubaroo
After students have watched a video I find it important that they take some sort of assessment so I can see what they have learned from the video. I use Google Forms to give online quizzes that automatically grade themselves to quickly assess what my students learned from my videos. Below you will find links to videos that show you how to make online quizzes using Google Forms and how to make those quizzes grade themselves using Flubaroo.
