Hello to you all! I hope you are doing well. I am curious if you are familiar with the concept of flipped learning? Flipped classrooms are a form of 'blended learning' and teaching method that aims to increase student participation and learning outcomes by providing online lessons for students to complete at home and working on real-time problem solving in class. The learner-centred approach and pre-delivered information makes the lesson less pedagogical and more engaging for students.
We were asked to develop a grammar lesson for high school preparatory students. For this task I worked together with my friends Pelin and Abdurrahman. Our lesson was about frequency adverbs. We used the coursebook for the preparatory students as our main source. The students were first given a text with frequency adverbs and asked to order these adverbs according to their frequency. I then provided the answers with explanations for their reflection. Finally, Abdurrahman provided further examples to reinforce the students' understanding of the topic. Pelin also designed an engaging activity for the students based on the material Abdurrahman had prepared. In addition, Pelin created a fun taboo game to use in class. It was a nice experience and fun to be side by side with my friends and do such a project. However, it was a bit difficult when we had to try many times to record the audio and video.
We used Canva for the Taboo game, Wordwall for the interactive activity, and Zoom to make our video with facecams. I made transitions and edited our video using Capcut. In the end, we posted our video on YouTube as it is freely accessible to all students.
Here’s the YouTube link to our video, along with the interactive activity and in-class activity links.
