The main idea of my experience is make my students to become active participants in the learning process, to feel responsible for their learning, to be able to creatively approach problem solving, to be able to work in teams.

In my practice, I often use the flipped classroom when teaching my students. Because the traditional learning process is still one-way, where the group learns as a whole, I give them notes, have them do their homework, and give them feedback through, for example, quizzes. In traditional teaching, my students have little opportunity to apply what they have learned to situations or to actively participate on their part.

In the flipped classroom, however, both teaching and learning are student-centered, and there are two stages of learning. For example, at home, my students watch pre-recorded videos on topics, read independently or review course materials, participate in online activities, and do research. In class, they engage in guided or unsupervised practice on topics, participate in discussions, presentations, debates, do various experiments, and take part in formative assessment.

From my experience, the flipped classroom model is a complex model that is more suitable for university students than school students, who are not always able to come to their own conclusions about topics.

How is the class basically structured in a flipped classroom? Students are given a topic and can either create their own video content or use existing content available on different platforms. Students then come to class and present the topic to the whole class the next day, with the teacher acting as a guide for them.

Using the flipped classroom you need to figure out how to make the content accessible to students. It's all about figuring out for yourself a way to track their progress, clarify their doubts and provide real-time feedback.

For this purpose, I use Google classroom where I can create content and share it with my students, analyze their progress, send feedback in real time. But one must keep in mind that posting videos and reading materials as announcements in the Classroom feed for students to view before going to class, more online activities need to be planned, and recommendations and feedback need to be constantly provided during class to avoid dead silence due to distance.

With a flipped classroom, to keep students interested I use interactive games using Aha Slides an online interactive presentation platform that allows me to conduct various fun activities such as live quizzes, polls, brainstorming ideas, interactive presentations, etc. You have to register for free on the site, create a presentation and share it with your students. Students can participate from their phones and the results are displayed in real time for all to see.

Pre-recorded instructional video lessons are a major component of the flipped classroom method. In order for students to manage and monitor their own assignments, I use an online video creation and editing platform, Edpazl, which allows me to create video lessons, personalize them with my own comments and explanations, track student activity, and monitor them. With this platform, I can use videos from other sources and customize them according to the needs of my class or create my own, as well as monitor students' progress, including how many times they watched the video, which section they spend more time on, etc.

Student feedback

When I give students pre-recorded video lessons to watch at home, I need to make sure they are appropriate for their level and understanding. I also need to be sure that students know the methods for constructing a flipped classroom. Each student will have a different perception of the flipped classroom strategy and they may have questions about it as well. It is important to give them the opportunity to review and reflect on the entire experience. To do this, I use Padlet an online collaboration platform where students can create, share, and discuss content with me or their classmates. On this platform, you can create a separate wall for each lesson or activity where students can record and share their feedback.
