Hybrid Teaching & Learning
The Hybrid Model functions both online and in the physical classroom. Students are expected to engage in learning at home and at school using blended learning instructional strategies
The Flipped Classroom is one approach that can be employed when using the Hybrid Model. A variation of the flipped model involves students using teacher created/assigned videos of an instructional mini lesson prior (or in lieu of ) to receiving direct instruction from a teacher.
Advantages to “Flipping” your lessons:
● Content is available on demand in and out of school
● Students can pause, rewind, and rewatch content
● Creates time for teachers to work in small groups
● Students have access to instructional content without the teacher having to be present
● Promotes independent independent learning practices
Choose a video, give it your magic touch and track your students' comprehension. Introduce students to self-paced learning with interactive video lessons. It's easy to add your own voice narration and questions!
Simply upload any pdf/document/google doc, click to add places for your students to respond, edit any question details and you're done.
You can also embed content from other websites and try our interactive question types like Show Your Work (drawing), Drag and Drop, Audio Recording, Graphing, Essay, Math Typing, Resequencing and many more.
Google Slides
Create Google Slides that contain links to reading passages, mini lessons, charts, graphs, and other digital resources.
