Need of flipping classroom

 

Why we should flip our classroom?

•      Flipping helps busy students: Now days students are much more busy. They are doing more then one course and are over programmed.  Here in flipping class content is delivered via various medium. It is flexible which helps student to be in teachers instructions.

•      Flipping helps struggling students: in traditional methods of teaching teacher and topper students are active and struggling students are passive but in flipping class all students are equally active and teacher is roaming around every student helping them

•      Flipping helps students of all abilities to excel: all the straight instructions are recorded; student who needs helps can watch the videos many times until they learn the material. No more tension of copying down notes with the hope that they’ll understand them later. Instead, students can pause their teacher, rewind their teacher, and make sure they actually learn the important concepts.

•      Flipping increases student  - student –teacher interaction: flipping allows teachers to influence technology to increase interaction with students. Teachers play a vital role in the lives of their students. They are mentors, friends, neighbors, and experts. Having face-to-face interaction with teachers is an invaluable experience for students.

•      flipping allows teachers to influence technology to increase interaction with students: Flipping the classroom creates an ideal merger of online and face-to-face instruction that is becoming known as a “blended” classroom. Teachers  conduct mini lectures with groups of students who are struggling with the same content. The beauty of these mini lectures is we are delivering just-in-time instruction when the students are ready for learning.

•      Flipping allows teachers to know their students better: Teachers are not only to teach content, but also to inspire, to encourage, to listen, and to provide a vision for our students. Good teacher builds relationships with students. Students need positive adult role models in their lives and teacher can be a role models. flipping allows us to build better relationships with our students. This is due to the increased teacher–student interaction.

•      Flipping allows for real differentiation:  Course may be hard for many students and learning doesn’t come easily for all, so for those students who struggle, only key understanding is expected. For these students, we often modify their work on the fly by asking them to complete only key problems instead of all of them. This way our students who struggle will learn the essential objectives and not get bogged down with some of the more advanced topics that may just confuse them

•      Flipping changes classroom management: There are students who consistently did not pay attention in class. These students were frequently creating a distraction to the rest of the class and negatively affected everybody else’s learning. Flipping the classroom discovered something amazing. Because we were not just standing and talking at kids, many of the classroom management problems evaporated. Because class time is mostly used for students to either do activities or group work those students who were typically a distraction become a nonissue.

•      Flipping changes the way we talk to parents: Parents would often ask us how their child behaved in class like “Does my child sit quietly, act respectfully, raise his or her hand, and not disturb other students?” does s/he learning?? Flipping class helps to answer these questions.

•      Flipping educates parents: many materials are provided to students when parents take interest in helping their kids it helps to educate parents.

•      Flipping makes your class transparent: videos are posted on the Internet, and students’ parents and others have free access to them. Instead of wondering what their students are being exposed to in the classroom, parents can find a lesson, which makes class transparent.

•      Flipping is a great technique for absent teachers:  flipped class helps to utilize the time when teacher is absent. Here in flipped class, lecture is recorded which helps to continue the class in the crises of qualified teacher.
