Welcome to Ms. Wolfin's
​Flipped Chemistry Classroom

What is a ​"Flipped Classroom"?


Picture

Traditional classrooms lecture during class time and send students home with problems to complete.  The flipped classroom utilizes a method in which course materials are introduced outside of class, and in-class time is re-purposed for inquiry, application, and assessment in order to better meet the needs of individual learners. Course materials might include readings, pre-recorded video lectures, or research assignments. In class, we will work together to review those concepts, evaluate the students understanding, and address difficulties or common misconceptions. Students then move on to complete critical thinking questions, hands-on activities, labs, debates, discussions etc. in collaborative groups.

​This format allows more time in class for these hands-on activities which they can't do at home and more difficult concepts that would be too hard to answer on their own, than a traditional classroom set up would. The teacher is a facilitator instead of a lecturer. The flipped classroom puts a lot of responsibility on the student to remain engaged and work hard at home, much like a college course. As an educator, I want to ensure my students have the tools to make them college and career ready. This strategy allows my students to begin to become more independent at home, while also giving me time to work with students individually. Important class handouts can be found on this website, although all will be posted on Google Classroom as well. Students can also find review materials with answer keys and review videos on this website.
