Instruction outside the classroom(video based learning) Practice (homework) inside the classroom 6. The Premise / The Promise 7. The Fisch Flip The idea behind the videos was to flip it. Thestudents can watch it outside of class, pause it,replay it, view it several times, even mute me ifthey want, says Fisch, who emphasizes that hedidnt come up with the idea, nor is he the onlyteacher in the country giving it a try. That allowsus to work on what we used to do as homeworkwhen Im there to help students and theyrethere to help each other.Reverse Instruction / Inverted ClassroomKarl Fisch 8.

This isnt Teaching!?No, it isnt.Thats the point.It is learning NOT Teaching. 22. Students wont do out of class workA very important criticism. However, ifdoing the out of class work is importantto their success with peers in theclassroom, they will more likely do thework.The other option is no out of schoolwork. Allot time for lab and self studywithin school hours 23. Not all my studentshave a computer or internet access Try to persuade your school to provide access and devices to all. Have extra devices in the classroom for sign out. Allot time for student self study at school. 24. Im not that tech savvy!Dont worry, you dont have to be.You dont have to make videos, curatecontent that is pre-made and availablepubliclyGive students control over the tech portion ofclass study theyll respond to responsibility. 25. How do you assess this?Easily. Use rubrics and better if they are developed with/by the students.Focus on alternative and performance based assessment, what the students accomplished and can do.Keep tracking sheets and records let the students do the work by filling them out! 26. My class has too many levels forthis to work!Thats precisely the greatest reason to useit!Students learn at their own level and sharingwith each other actively in class.Other students are great scaffolds andmentors. Dont underestimate yourstudents as teachers! 27. Isnt this too much work?Like anything, it takes time/effort to start up.But in terms of delivery, once it is started, it is vastly easier and less stressful than direct instruction. The pressure is off the teacher. In fact the pressure is off everywhere. 28. How do I start?Be the guide on the side NOTthe sage on the stage.Ask students what they want to learn.Step back, make the students the focusof attention. 29. How do I start?Start with Production. Flip your lessonand deliver it upside down. In classthey should use the language.Increase student talk time dramatically.Dont get hung up on specific outcomes. Ask yourself, are they learning?. 30. How do I start?Start experimenting with your GOODclasses.Take a risk and give students thematerials and see what they can dowith the briefest of instruction/outline.Consciously rein your teaching in andimagine your class as a living spaceand not a working space. 31.
