Technology Tailgate: Flipping Professional

The technology tools we have available to us today for creating, curating and sharing video content have propelled us into conversations about how we can use this flexible content to move our students and teachers forward quickly and intentionally.

As so many flip learning educators will tell you, “It’s not about the videos.” But this could not be more true than with Flipped PD. The face-to-face time of Flipped Professional Development is where we have the greatest impact. Whether this is a large group setting or, in Stillwater’s case — small group workshop settings, the impact of flipped learning happens with the personalization of staff development. Flipped learning can be applied to these situations by providing content ahead of time. Time spent together can be dedicated to work time, problem solving, or discussion around the topic.
