I am attempting to revamp my curriculum and approach to teaching.
Although the term itself has lead to a bit of a backlash (as always
happens when a new strategy becomes flavor of the month), I think there
is much value in some variation on the flipped classroom model. At a
minimum, I know my current strategies have stagnated and I am finding it
ever more difficult to slog through the content in class with a
distracted group of thirty or more 14-15-year-olds, leaving less
and less time to do interesting things like labs and projects field
trips and such.
I also find that the interface for the
school's website that allows teachers to post assignments, events, and
links is just too cumbersome for the way I work either way - as it is,
attempts to update information on a daily basis requires too many steps
and limitations, which a blog format will simplify for me. Time will tell
if I run into problems on blogger that I didn't encounter on edline.
I will have one blog for AP Biology and a separate blog for Regents Living Environment. For the rest, the results will speak for themselves once I start posting.
