Look to listen to a recent Slate Magazine podcast where two educators discuss the viability of flipping the classroom with teacher-created videos to improve student learning. The moderator does an excellent job of asking questions and providing insights to move the conversation to the more profound question of how technology can move beyond simply reinforcing essential knowledge attainment to empower students to engage their higher-order thinking skills. I especially value that teachers in language arts and other subject areas have always given their students information to process at home so that class time can be devoted to discussion, questioning, and building more profound understanding.
