J. Suzuki (CUNY) Flipped Classes 1 / 14

The Thirty-Second Explanation

Traditional Class:

In-class lecture,

At-home assignments.

Flipped Class:

At-home lecture,

In-class assignemts.

Flipped classes are a response to a common student complaint:

“I understand everything in lecture, but when I go to work a problem, I don’tknow what to do.”

Flipped classes follow from two premises:

Lecture is a good way to present mathematics.

Students learn mathematics by solving problems.

A Defense of Lecture

Premise: Lecture is a good way to present mathematics.

But the notes for a math lecture are like the notes for a symphony: Everything isthere but the music.

Following Examples

In a traditional class, we use class time to show examples:

Solve 3x − 7 = 15

Solve 2x + 5 = 8 − x

Solve 4(x + 3) = 15 + 4x

Students then do exercises at home:

Solve 4x + 8 = 11

Solve 5x + 3 = 4 + 2x

Solve 5(x − 4) = 21

Their ability to answer these questions depends on their ability to follow yourexamples.

Problem Solving

In problem solving, students learn a broad concept:

Solving an equation for a variable requires isolating the variable on one side of an= symbol.

Then they tackle problems like:

Solve 3x − 7 = 15

Solve 2x + 5 = 8 − x

Solve 4(x + 3) = 15 + 4x

Solve 4x + 8 = 11

Solve 5x + 3 = 4 + 2x

Solve 5(x − 4) = 21

Their ability to solve these problems relies on their understanding of theunderlying concept.

J. Suzuki (CUNY) Flipped Classes 9 / 14

Small Steps

A good way to start is to implement a “No Review” policy:

No class time to bespent reviewing material from previous courses.

Then compose videos covering the most common topics you’ve had to review:

The time you’d spend on review is now available for regular class use,

The review videos form the core of a flipped course.

Five Guidelines for a Good Video

Modified from Bergmann and Sams (2012):

Make it short:

I try for a maximum length of 10 minutes.

Modulate your voice:

If your voice shows you’re excited about a topic,students will be too.

Add humor:

If you make jokes in class, make them on the video. Butremember: once it’s online, it’s there forever.

Add animation:

Let things appear

and disappear

, and use .

Stay on topic:

This helps keep the videos short.

What to Expect . . . And How to Live With It

Common problems, and solutions.

Students don’t have much experience learning from online videos

(not yet).Emphasize pause, rewind, replay features in an orientation lecture.

Students don’t watch videos in a timely manner.

Allow students to completeassignments over several class periods.

Lots of student questions.

But most of us teach because we like interactingwith students.

Grading.

I’m still working on this one.

Group work.

Encourage collaboration: the best way to learn something is toexplain it to someone else! If you allow collaborative assignments, this alsoreduces the grading burden.

Not all rooms can host a flipped class.

Fixed desks and crowded rooms makeit harder to assist students.
