IGCSE Flipped Classroom Expectations The flipped classroom is a model that will help you develop independence of learning, and allow us to spend more time in class focusing on the harder topics. The traditional model of teaching (learn new stuff in class and practise the skills at home) is flipped so that you do the basic learning at home (mainly from videos) and in class you practise the new skills with the teacher there to help with any problems. This is designed to overcome the traditional problem of you being unable to answer questions in the homework, and having nobody to ask. It also allows us to spend more time looking at the more challenging question types in class where you have the support of the teacher. For the flipped classroom to work well, the emphasis is put on YOU. If YOU do not watch a video before the lesson, YOU will not be able to answer the questions in class. YOU are in charge of YOUR learning. The requirements for each objective are: 1. Watch the video (and take notes in your copybook, including copying down any examples, just like you would in a normal lesson) 2. Do the short Online Quiz (3 or 4 questions to check your basic understanding of the content of the video) 3. Prepare one question for the next lesson (either a question about the topic that you have not fully understood or a question to pose to others in the class on the topic)
