Book Synopsis

This revised edition of the groundbreaking book shares innovators Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams's insights on how to successfully flip a classroom and covers new advances in the field.

It started with a simple observation: Students need their teachers present to answer questions or to provide help if they get stuck on an assignment; they don't need their teachers present to listen to a lecture or review content. From there, Jon Bergmann and Aaron Sams began the flipped classroom. Students watched recorded lectures for homework and completed their assignments, labs and tests in class with their teacher available. What they found was that their students demonstrated a deeper understanding of the material than ever before. This is the authors' story, updated and expanded, to ensure it's as relevant to your classroom as ever.

The revised edition includes:

• New case studies illustrating flipped learning applied by an individual teacher and across a school district.
• A new appendix focused on best practices for creating videos for your classes.
• Educator examples that demonstrate the ISTE Standards in action.
  
• Updates to tools, terms and resources to reflect the current learning landscape.

In the revised edition of this landmark text, you'll discover the flipped mastery model that allows students to learn at their own pace, furthering opportunities for personalized education. This simple concept is easily replicable in any classroom, doesn't cost much to implement and helps foster self-directed learning.

Audience: Elementary and secondary classroom teachers
