Bishop Burton College:
‘Online teaching – asynchronous seminars’.
Introduction
At Bishop Burton College we use asynchronous sessions with our blended learning courses as a way of delivering information, developing independent learning, discussion and evaluative skills. Please utilise the resources below in order to participate in our flipped learning activity.
Use the link to watch BBC Panorama Britain’s puppy dealers exposed and read the attached Life of the pig pdf from Compassion in World Farming. Having watched the videos take time to consider the statements on the attached word document.
BBC Panorama Britain’s puppy dealers exposed
Questions
- Consider whether the information from the two sources provides balanced arguments?
- Consider your own feelings towards how each species is utilised in the examples given?
- In the video evaluate the contribution the experts made towards the evidence presented.
- In the video John Bradshaw states that the dogs were being treated like agricultural animals, how do you interpret this statement?
We look forward to debating your answers at the conference.
Doncaster College, University Centre:
‘Fliperentiation’ – Differentiation in the Flipped Environment.
There is an assumption in much of the writing and research on flipped learning that it is in some way inherently more amenable to differentiated instruction because learners can assimilate the ‘flipped’ out-of-classroom section of the session at their own speed. We are going to challenge this assumption, arguing that task design and questioning strategies in the flipped environment need an even greater degree of scaffolding to help learners progress through the different cognitive levels of critical thinking.
We have designed an activity based around a short story by Raymond Carver. In the accompanying materials, there is the story, study materials to be given to students in the out-of-classroom section of the class and Hess's Cognitive Rigour Matrix for reading. We will be using these materials to help delegates think about the question of differentiation and to design differentiated activities for the in-class portion of the flipped class.
