Simply defined, the flipped classroom is the inversion of the events that happened
inside the classroom so that they take place outside the classroom and vice
versa.

CLASSROOM?WHAT IS A 'FLIPPED'
“We define the flipped classroom as an educational technique that consists of two parts: interactive group learning activities inside the classroom, and direct computer-
based individual instruction outside the classroom” (5).
Bishop and Verleger 2013
DOES THE USE OF THE 'FLIPPED' CLASSROOM IN LATIN INSTRUCTION IMPROVE STUDENT PERCEIVED PERFORMANCE OR CONFIDENCE IN THE LANGUAGE?
MY 'FLIPPED' LATIN CLASSROOM
MY 'FLIPPED' LATIN CLASSROOM
• 15-week intensive Latin course
• 22 students (10m/12f)
• Average GPA (self-reported): 3.394
MY 'FLIPPED' LATIN CLASSROOM
FOUR TECHNOLOGIES I USED
1. Online Videos
2. QR Codes
3. Fillable .pdf homework
4. Vocabulary PowerPoints
ONLINE VIDEOS
• 2 different types
• Instructional
• Modeling
• Length: 5-7 minutes
• Accessible 24/7 via YouTube and Class website
QR CODES
• "Quick Response Codes"
• 2 different uses
• In-Class
• Out-of-Class
QR CODES: IN-CLASS
• Used to provide links to answers.
• Encouraged cooperation and independent learning in learner groups
QR CODES: OUT-OF-CLASS
• Used to provide links to Online Modeling Videos.
• Encouraged independent learning outside of class
• Provide scaffolding outside of class
FILLABLE .PDF HOMEWORKS
• Homeworks posted to class website in advance as fillable .pdfs
• Learners allowed either to print and turn in during class or to email completed .pdf to instructor
• Instructor annotated .pdfs and emailed them back to learners
FILLABLE .PDF HOMEWORKS
• Benefits:
• Creation of a digital archive of all students' work
• Higher percentage of homework completion
• Drawbacks:
• Increased time to create homeworks
• Increased time to grade homeworks
VOCABULARY POWERPOINTS
• PowerPoints created to go through vocabulary with learners in class
• Small number of words (5-7 words) presented each class
• Collaborative activities and translations focus on the vocabulary words for each class
• PowerPoints posted online
VOCABULARY POWERPOINTS
• Benefits:
• Allows for a connection to be made between the L2 word and the semantic concept, not with a L1 word
• Using images that evoke strong emotions or are relevant to learners are best
• Online access to PowerPoints allows for independent review

THE RESULTS
Nothing, I think you're doing an awesome job teaching this class, and I couldn't see it getting any better.
I am doing well. I enjoy class and think you are doing a very good job teaching me Latin. Spending time reviewing the material at home is critical for success.
