Week 7: Digital Learning- Blended Learning

Reflect on how you could incorporate a 'Flipped' or 'Blended' Approach into your classroom. What tools could you use, who could you collaborate with? 

Within our school, the notion of blended approach is a key aspect of our classrooms, as every child has a 1:1 device within the school. We create projects and videos for the children to complete, parents often work on these projects during the weekend to prepare and discuss learning for the upcoming week. By doing this, it not only prepares children for what work is coming up, but for children to understand that these projects can be referred to in future, if they forget concepts in due course. Flipped learning provides an invaluable opportunity for children to take control of their own learning, in their own time and at their own pace.

In addition to this, we were provided with the following links where teachers can create their own flipped lessons. This was a concept that was discussed so that learning is active, learners are more engaged with their learning as they learn in their own time and own place.
