Flipped ClassroomOutside of Class
1. Students watch a video that demonstrates/explains a concept
• Teacher may create video or select video by someone else
2. Students respond to questions posed by the teacher about the content
• Helps teacher understand what topics are still not clear to students
Flipped ClassroomIn Class
1. Teacher clarifies points the students did not understand from the videoand/or engages students in discussion and interaction about the topic of the video
2. Students work on an assignment related to the topic
3. Teacher provides additional help to students who need one-on-one assistance

Flipped ClassroomTips
• You do not need to completely flip your classroom!
• Keep the length of each video under 5 minutes• If you use videos from YouTube, you can use
TubeChop to select just a portion of the video for students to watch
• Ask students to respond to 2 to 6 questions after watching a video
• Keep in mind how much time you are asking students to spend outside of class

Blended Learning
• Some class activities or discussions take place in an online learning environment or learning management system
Blended LearningLesson Example
1. Find a real world example of repetition that is similar to a loop in computer science
2. Online: Post and describe your real world example of a loop. Respond to classmates’ posts, stating whether you think example is for loop, while loop, do…while loop.
3. Write a computer program simulating your example
4. Online: Post your program and explain why you selected this type of loop
5. Online: Comment on classmates’ coding choices

Project-Based Learning (PBL)• Helps students deepen
their understanding of STEM content while working collaboratively on a complex real-world question
• Project-based learning (PBL) is different from completing a project
