Practical Ideas and Strategies
In this highly engaging, interactive NEW seminar, you will learn innovative ways to use technology to “flip” your secondary science classroom. The “flipped” classroom is based on the idea that students need their teachers to provide assistance and guide their learning during class time, when they are working with new skills and concepts. This unique way of utilizing technology enables you to present introductory lessons in science that your students can access outside the classroom, making it possible for you to work more directly with them during class time to practice and master the skills they need to know.
During this fast-paced seminar, Brian Miller, an experienced secondary science educator and national presenter, will show you how to create short, engaging science video lessons for your students to view prior to class, as well as new approaches, practical strategies, tips, and tools about what to do during class time, after the students have viewed your video lessons, to strengthen their learning. You’ll see how to use class time more efficiently to meet the needs of all students, whether they need additional help in mastering basic skills or they are ready for more challenging work.
Throughout the day, the emphasis will be on new ways to help your students master rigorous science skills and concepts, including those aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards, by fully utilizing your class time to support student learning and engagement in hands-on science as well as project-based critical thinking and collaboration.
You will leave this dynamic, empowering seminar with new insights, practical strategies, and an extensive resource handbook filled with practical ideas for flipping your secondary classroom for science instruction. Come and discover the exciting world of flipping your classroom, then watch your students’ motivation and enthusiasm soar for learning science!
