In the In Class Flip model, teachers facilitate structures in which students explore and interact with content in groups or individually using pre-prepared materials while the teacher is free to work with individuals and groups rather than teaching whole group, less differentiated lessons.
Strengths of this approach:
students increase their autonomy as learners
learning becomes social and more effective
student materials and groupings can be highly differentiated
compared to whole class teacher directed lessons
teacher effort is focused on addressing personalized needs for students
teacher-student relationships are fostered through this
personalized approach
Challenges of this approach:
Fostering autonomous routines requires persistent effort
how will desired behaviors be re-inforced daily
how might students get what they need while teachers are in session with a group
Managing new classroom routines and providing instruction simultaneously will feel difficult at first
Student facing materials need to be curated or created ahead of class
Systems need to be used to track student learning & needs
