The flipped classroom is a model in which the student listens to prerecorded video lectures before they come to class. The students' role in the classroom changes from being passive receivers to active learners engaged in "exploration and discovery within the content's framework." In class, the students work with the content in group or individual activities with their teacher, who helps clarify and deepen the students' understanding.

There is open education, content, and source. Open education is a philosophy about the way people should produce, share, and build on knowledge.Proponents of open education believe everyone in the world should have access to high-quality educational experiences and resources, and they work to eliminate barriers to this goal. Such barriers might include high monetary costs, outdated or obsolete materials, and legal mechanisms that prevent collaboration among scholars and educators. The term "open content" describes any copyrightable work (traditionally excluding software, which is described by other terms like "open source") that is licensed in a manner that provides users with free and perpetual permission to engage in the 5R activities:
  1. Retain - the right to make, own, and control copies of the content (e.g., download, duplicate, store, and manage)
  2. Reuse - the right to use the content in a wide range of ways (e.g., in a class, in a study group, on a website, in a video)
  3. Revise - the right to adapt, adjust, modify, or alter the content itself (e.g., translate the content into another language)
  4. Remix - the right to combine the original or revised content with other material to create something new (e.g., incorporate the content into a mashup)
  5. Redistribute - the right to share copies of the original content, your revisions, or your remixes with others (e.g., give a copy of the content to a friend)

Since I was sick last week, I was not there to complete the two PowerPoint assignment so the new skills I acquired while working on Assignment Six were learning how to create a working Jeopardy game on PowerPoint. I did not know this before and didn't know that you had to use SlideMaster to help make it. I also learned how to link the game to individual slides, which was the hardest part of the project.

My previous experiences using technology would be in school when using laptops, GoogleClassroom, Edmodo, Moodle, and Progressbook for classes. We would also use projectors, Powerpoints, Prezis, and Kahoots for class as a way to learn. My experiences using technology for fun would be watching t.v., using my iPhone, and using my Macbook. My iPhone and Macbook are both great ways to be entertained and connect with friends, but can also overlap and be used for school purposes too, such as using Kahoot during class. In this class I hope to learn on how to effectively use different types of technology in the classroom. During my high school experience, my teachers were not trained well in the new technology that they were using, so my goal is to effectively know how to use technology in the classroom. My learning styles results say that I am balanced for both Visual/Verbal, Active/Reflective and Sequential/Global but I have a slight preference for Verbal, Reflective, and Global. I al...
