    #edchatie Hi Rita from WordsWorth Learning. Love the topic tonight. Have a huge interest in FC model - great for SLD kids
  • FuturewiseIE May 29 @ 3:33 PM EDT
    Hi All I'm a parent not a teacher. I'm running @FuturewiseIE #edchatie

    Hi Mary Galway Guidance, dropping in for final #edchatie
  • ruanemedu May 29 @ 3:40 PM EDT
    Most of Guidance is flipped - if I understand it correctly, as students research careers and come back with questions #edchatie
  • conpower May 29 @ 3:40 PM EDT
    #EdChatIE mobile tech has come such a long way flipping the classroom has never been easier!
  • fboss May 29 @ 3:41 PM EDT
    Yes it is - I always make that mistake (or leave it out altogether) at the start #edchatie
    In reply to @ruanemedu
  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:41 PM EDT
    Thanks for that. I could/should have Googled! #edchatie

    Paul Donovan Maynooth University big interest in flipping #edchatie
  • fboss May 29 @ 3:42 PM EDT
    Not just easier, almost natural - well, once you get used to it, that is ;-) #edchatie

  • fboss May 29 @ 3:43 PM EDT
    Oh yeah - intros: Fred Boss, 2nd level art teacher, currently with @NCCAie and talking "Flipped Classrooms" on the last #edchatie until Sept

    Flip your flipped classroom and let your students do the teaching: https://t.co/5v9PISzfAC #EdChatIE
  • Britannica_IE May 29 @ 3:44 PM EDT
    is there any particular tech you regularly rely on or a favourite of your students? #edchatie

  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:44 PM EDT
    I have some notes/discussion points here: https://t.co/xpbxJCNT7t #edchatie
  • FuturewiseIE May 29 @ 3:45 PM EDT
    As a parent makes total sense. Sometimes we've been taught differently from the kids so we can watch maths lesson with them #edchatie
  • GogartyColm May 29 @ 3:46 PM EDT
    ALL TEACHERS. ALL UNIONS. Please attend the PAY PROTEST RALLY tomorrow @4.30pm in front of the Dáil. #edchatie https://t.co/bIKVVTxWWr
  • fboss May 29 @ 3:46 PM EDT
    That's a good point. Does anyone on #edchatie see the possibility of using "Flipped Classroom" to bring parents onboard?
    In reply to @FuturewiseIE
  • wowoworld May 29 @ 3:47 PM EDT
    #edchatie Not a replacement for good classroom teaching; but gives student more opportunity to reflect, rewind & review difficult tutorials
  • donovanpaul May 29 @ 3:48 PM EDT
    What about some learner autonomy/control over what to learn? #edchatie
  • fboss May 29 @ 3:48 PM EDT
    Also a chance for students to face a problem themselves and better articulate difficulties next day in class #edchatie
    In reply to @wowoworld
  • GlenstalGirl May 29 @ 3:48 PM EDT
    Mairead O'S Econs/Bus teacher @GlenstalSchool. Really interested in this topic. Have been flipping 😀 recently for revision classes #edchatie
  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:49 PM EDT
    We need structure in a strong way for out of classroom activities. Fine for self directed learners, for normal kids, Parental help #edchatie

  • GogartyColm May 29 @ 3:49 PM EDT
    #edchatie So important that we demand equality from gov + unions. Approaching 7 years of inequality. This deal could cement it for a decade

    Students in my class surveyed their parents on the purpose of a university #edchatie

  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:50 PM EDT
    Learner Autonomy and open end points.. Thats 21st century learning, and we are not there yet! #edchatie
  • FuturewiseIE May 29 @ 3:50 PM EDT
    If the parents aren't on board with flipped learning can the whole process unravel? #edchatie
    In reply to @CuffeL, @fboss
  • wowoworld May 29 @ 3:51 PM EDT
    #edchatie Yes students set video tutorials & exercises to watch & do @ home, student can pause, rewind & replay any lesson learn @ own pace

    yep still using G Suite. Great for video and classroom is awesome. #EdChatIE

    Are there any stats on how many schools are using this model, is it still in its infancy? #edchatie
  • brenos100 May 29 @ 3:52 PM EDT
    Brendan O'Sullivan, Geog/Irish/Pol&Soc teacher. Tried flipping a few times ...found the take up among my students quite low. #edchatie
  • racingrichie May 29 @ 3:52 PM EDT
    #edchatie I find Khan Academy an excellent resource for Maths
  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:52 PM EDT
    Its an old model, reframed for technology. Read the text, we will discuss it in class! #edchatie

    Does anyone make use of @TED_ED site for Flipped Classroom https://t.co/XMVcWr0srr #edchatie
  • GogartyColm May 29 @ 3:53 PM EDT
    #edchatie My apologies for butting in on this evening's discussion but you're a great bunch of active teachers and we need every one of you!
    In reply to @4
  • brenos100 May 29 @ 3:53 PM EDT
    Students/Teachers would buy into it if more widely used and extensively used across the school #edchatie
  • TeachingCouncil May 29 @ 3:54 PM EDT
    Wishing everyone a great night in the NCH with @ChoirNCC! #edchatie
    • PresidentINTO May 29 @ 3:40 PM EDT
      Great excitement as we anticipate the second half of @ChoirNCC final night. Children from four provinces excelling.
  • conpower May 29 @ 3:54 PM EDT
    nothing in particular. For video getting decent audio is key so a lav mic for phone or usb mic if using webcam #EdChatIE

    Anyone using tech for peer assessment in the flipped classroom? #edchatie
  • conpower May 29 @ 3:55 PM EDT
    #edchatie agree a platform like Google classroom or similar where a student has a one stop shop for links and resources

    #edchatie After learning concept at home 1st then discussing homework in class gives the teacher a clearer picture of who's struggling
  • fboss May 29 @ 3:55 PM EDT
    I would be interested to know about this too #edchatie
  • conpower May 29 @ 3:55 PM EDT
    #edchatie I love the computational thinking puzzels for unplugged side of coding.

    Do you have a link to those? #edchatie
    In reply to @conpower, @TED_ED
  • conpower May 29 @ 3:56 PM EDT
    #edchatie be hard to gauge at a school level, most is on a per teacher basid, need time, ability & interest
    In reply to @FuturewiseIE
  • fboss May 29 @ 3:57 PM EDT
    I think we jumped right in to the #edchatie discussion on"Flipped Classroom" without defining what we mean - anyone go t a good definition?
  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:57 PM EDT
    Some good ideas for recording/Authoring on this site for librarians! https://t.co/Qp1sFwtk70 #edchatie

  • wowoworld May 29 @ 3:58 PM EDT
    #edchatie Homework discussed with whole class also facilitates peer tuition & support = very powerful teaching tool.
  • ghenrick May 29 @ 3:58 PM EDT
    You can do peer assessment & feedback on #moodle in multiple ways, #edchatie
    In reply to @donovanpaul
  • FuturewiseIE May 29 @ 3:58 PM EDT
    Thanks, yes seems to be the way forward, and gives you more time to teach in the classroom esp on a subject like maths #edchatie
    In reply to @conpower
  • CuffeL May 29 @ 3:59 PM EDT
    No, this is a major point. Discusion and engagement critically effective in promoting deep learning #edchatie

    Who can resist problem-solving the Zombie Apocalypse? #edchatie
  • CuffeL May 29 @ 4:02 PM EDT
    True, but I find Moodle old and clunky. (personal bias here) Its mostly not used to full potential (distributed Photocopier mode)#edchatie

    Just passed the halfway mark in the last #edchatie discussion of this academic year & it's all about "Flipped Classroom" Back on 4th Sept
  • conpower May 29 @ 4:06 PM EDT
    #edchatie Always found after days of trainign the same 3 staff members the only ones using Moodle. Google Classroom very quick to get users.

  • jessicaolearyx May 29 @ 4:06 PM EDT
    #edchatie Brilliant opp for all levels allows weaker student revise basics and gifted learners chance to explore topic in more detail!
  • wowoworld May 29 @ 4:06 PM EDT
    @fboss #edchatie Don't seem to be able to access the 'chat' so will bow out. Have a great summer. Rita
  • fboss May 29 @ 4:07 PM EDT
    @conpower Do you also use it for peer-assessment? If so, how? #edchatie
  • fboss May 29 @ 4:08 PM EDT

    In reply to @wowoworld, @fboss
  • ruanemedu May 29 @ 4:09 PM EDT
    I used google docs for formative assessment LCVP portfolio, very easy share links among students for peer assessment IMO #edchatie
  • FuturewiseIE May 29 @ 4:10 PM EDT
    Do you find your students are more motivated when you use flipped learning? #edchatie
    In reply to @jessicaolearyx
  • donovanpaul May 29 @ 4:10 PM EDT
    Student centred spaces with peer assessed performative activities and just a nudge where the teacher used to be #edchatie
    In reply to @fboss
  • conpower May 29 @ 4:11 PM EDT
    #edchatie As others have said its great for the self directed learners, but not every student will make the effort.. no more than other appr
    In reply to @FuturewiseIE, @jessicaolearyx
  • conpower May 29 @ 4:13 PM EDT
    #edchatie Works great for some but some students don't respond to just a nudge. #nudgenudgewinkwinksaynomore

  • CuffeL May 29 @ 4:13 PM EDT
    The fundamental model/pedagogy is social interaction as part of learning, at this point social media does this better.#moodle #edchatie
    In reply to @ghenrick, @donovanpaul
  • FuturewiseIE May 29 @ 4:14 PM EDT
    And what are the main benefits to the teacher in your view? #edchatie
    In reply to @conpower, @jessicaolearyx
  • conpower May 29 @ 4:14 PM EDT
    #edchatie Planning to ramp it up big time next year with students producing the content. They learn from creation & other s. find relatable
  • donovanpaul May 29 @ 4:15 PM EDT
    But 'and and' rather than either traditional or technological #edchatie

    Most flipping I see suffers from bad audio. Worth researching and investing in good Microphones #edchatie.
  • conpower May 29 @ 4:17 PM EDT
    #edchatie Content of course it can. You can have a student read a people in history essay with Green Screen and add visuals to background..

  • donovanpaul May 29 @ 4:17 PM EDT
    we need to keep arranging the 'furniture' until the nudge works anything else is too hard work #edchatie

    You've got to be a swiss army knife with array of approaches to address different learners as best you can.Flipping is one of many #edchatie
    In reply to @donovanpaul
  • jessicaolearyx May 29 @ 4:19 PM EDT
    #edchatie this sounds like a great idea. Do you flip as in peer assessment or you reviewing their portfolios via google docs?
    In reply to @ruanemedu
  • conpower May 29 @ 4:19 PM EDT
    #edchatie You can have students dress as someone from history like Wolfe Tone and tell his story. You can get them to recreate events..

  • conpower May 29 @ 4:23 PM EDT
    Don't forget you can flip with audio only, as in podcasting. Students like giving their eyes a break sometimes. #edchatie
  • miriambergin May 29 @ 4:24 PM EDT
    #edchatie am so late, pity as am interested in Flipped CLassroom, starting to do it, but still some students no ICT access at home
