Open Education Resource: Flipping the classroom with MOODLE

About the OERThe open education resource is a collection of MOODLE Lesson activities that are useful as out-of-class activity while flipping the classroom. There are three lessons as part of this OER, and each deals with an aspect related to Concept Maps. Concept mapping is a technique that is useful across domains and can be a useful tool for: Knowledge Integration and Summary.

OER is downloadable from: www.et.iitb.ac.in/~jkmadathil/et4et/oer.html (You may also provide your Wordpress page details if that is the webpage used for dissemination of the OER)

Section 2: Design DecisionsNature of Decisions takenThe design decisions involved in the creation of this OER were of broadly three types:

1. Content Decisions2. Pedagogic Decisions3. Technology Decisions

Content DecisionsThe content decisions related to:

a. Introduction to Biochemistry,prologue and a historical perspective.b. Importance of biochemical concepts. Biomolecules.

Pedagogic DecisionsTypically in a flipped classroom strategy, there are two segments – Out-of-class segment and In-Class segment. The out-of-class segment requires student to refer to some given material (Video, Text etc) and form an understanding about the concepts that are relevant. In terms of concept marking the pedagogic decisions that were taken for the Out-of-class segment related to:

a. Cognitive Levels of Questions to be asked along with the resources – Mostly Recall to Apply level question for out of class and Create Level question for In-class

b. Assessment Strategies – Multiple choice questions for out of class, Team-Pair-Solo strategy for in-class

Technology DecisionsWhile developing the Out-of-Class and In-class activities, the major technology decisions taken were:

a. Tool to be used for creating screencast – Jing, as it had a time limit of 5 minutes and provided option for creating videos as .swf files that can be directly played from browser.

b. MOODLE Lesson Activity for setting up Out-of-Class segment as it allowed guided self-learning.

Section 4: Evaluating Effectiveness of OER

The OER effectiveness can be assessed at two levels:

1. At the student level2. At the consumer level

The feedback will be taken at the end of the class to improvise the content of the class at each time.The screenshot is as follows:

A discussion forum will also be created to encourage the students to discuss the topics among them and also with the teacher.
