The "flipped" classroom bible contains no references, bibliography or index. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1564843157/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=1564843157&linkCode=as2&tag=resourcesforprog …m/gp/product/15iste3157/refASCDli_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=1564843157&linkCode=as2&tag=resourcesforprog Strange that @iste & @ascd published it.- Teachers neither own learning, produce it or control kids' lives outside of school hours. @Bruce1979 @dougpete @kchalls @RobertTalbert
- You are making assumptions that those are 1) all good things 2) achieved by this party trick. @kchalls @RobertTalbert
- I believe that teachers who lecture should be remediated, not recorded or watched at home. @kchalls @RobertTalbert
- I didn't read the whole book, but the idea is rooted in teacher pissed-off that kids miss class. @kchalls @RobertTalbert
- Name another book jointly published by ASCD & ISTE without a bibliography. @kchalls @RobertTalbert
- Name another ed initiative that has taken off like flipping. @kchalls @RobertTalbert
- I'm not addressing higher-ed, but replacing lectures with recordings of lectures is hardly innovation. @RobertTalbert @kchalls
- Who gave teachers surveillance authority? Why do you have any jurisdiction beyond the bell schedule? @kchalls @RobertTalbert
Gary Stager Raises Questions about the "Flipped" Classroom
I'm amazed by the viral nature of the "flipped" classroom phenomena and how educators have embraced it so eagerly. When I skimmed the book starting the craze, I was amazed that there are no citations or bibliography. The book was also jointly published by ASCD and ISTE indicating just how important the two organizations believe the fad to be. Too bad it's a terrible idea intruding upon the lives of kids while doubling-down on the least attractive aspects of schooling.
