My Inversion Conversion
This chapter, authored by a 17-year veteran teacher, approaches flipped instruction using empirical evidence from experience and observation within the classroom. Included are perspectives from the author's students on flipped instruction, as well as advice on pragmatic issues, such as where to first start with flipping instruction and how to manage outside-of-school access issues for students. It explores the impact on both classroom instruction and student assessment. Suggestions are offered on how to approach traditional instructional tasks with the flipped method in mind. This chapter concludes with a flip-related glossary of technology terms and tools. Educational practitioners can extrapolate from this “in the trenches” perspective to inform and enhance their own circumstances with regard to flipped learning.
