Hello everyone, Claudia here,
Today I would like to share this amazing video that you can use in any of your language classes. It's really interesting because it always shows two images at a time that are somehow connected.

News: More teachers experimenting with flipped instruction



The concept of flipped instruction appears to be catching on in classrooms nationwide, as more teachers say their students are benefiting from the technique. 

What is flipped instruction?

The following link will provide you with some background information:


Essentially, flipped instruction (aka reversed instruction) requires students to view online lectures outside of class while using valuable class time for group and project work which might otherwise be assigned for homework.

A recent survey on flipped instruction found that among teachers who have utilized it, most report increased student achievement. The technique, however, is not without its detractors. It has drawn criticism from some who say not all students have equal access to technology at home. There certainly still is a technology gap among students. We would love to hear your thoughts on flipped instruction! Have you used the technique? What are its pros and cons? Let's start a discussion!
