In the
first post I read of Coach John Hahnstadt’s “A Flipped Classroom” he basically
summarizes the tactics and usages of the term.
The concept is about implementing technology into the classroom, but mainly
directed towards athletic instruction.
He uses apps, video editing software, or other computer based devices to
create a virtual learning experience that a teacher doesn’t even need to be
present for. It is supposed to free up
time that teachers spend audibly delivering the information so that they can
spend more time in a one-on-one setting.
My comments
towards the post were of basic agreement with the overall purpose and scheme,
but did not agree with the methods. I
didn’t understand why a teacher is moving towards an instruction method of
virtually enhanced media basis instead of verbally and physically engaging in
the learning process of a child. At the
end, I stated that I like the idea bout would never use it in a classroom setting. Also, for some reason the post wasn't accepted.
Comment for Teacher 1.2
In Coach Hahnstadt's most recent post he introduces to use a new app he has been utilizing from home since he has been at home with his wife who just recently had a child. The application he uses is CoachNote, which is an application specifically made for professional coaches that utilize technology. The coach also shared with us one of the videos he sent to his staff so that they could instruct class without him physically being there. It gave the staff a way to learn what Coach Hahnstadt wanted them, but also gave the staff an instructional tool for teaching the children. All of this was done from the comfort(if you call no sleep and a newborn comfortable) of his own home, and he completed his instructional video in about 10 minutes. Commenting on this post was simple. I had remembered last season while coaching a soccer team that I had been drawing on the dirt or on an invisible playing field with my finger. I realized how horrible of a description I was giving the team, and that if I could have utilized this application then we would have won many more games!
