The Flipped Team will have two presentations this week at the Annual Meeting of the Missouri Council of Teachers of Mathematics this week.

The first presentation, Making the Most of Flipped In-Class Time, will be held on Friday, December 1st from 8:30-9:30AM. In this presentation, we will share examples of flipped lessons and engage attendees in discussions of how teachers can structure in-class time for maximum interactivity and learning, problem solving, classroom discussions, and feedback. The presenters will be Sam Otten, Wenmin Zhao, and Zandra de Araujo.

The second presentation, Evaluating Videos for Flipped Instruction, will be held on Saturday, December 2nd from 11:00AM-12:00PM.  In this presentation, we will discuss a research-based framework of key characteristics for evaluating videos for flipped instruction. Attendees will be invited to share their experiences selecting and/or designing instructional videos, followed by a discussion of innovative ways of utilizing flipped videos. The presenters will be Zandra de Araujo, Samuel Otten, and Wenmin Zhao.

The Missouri Council of Teachers of Mathematics (MoCTM) is an affiliate of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. The MoCTM Conference will be held December 1-2 at the Holiday Inn Executive Center in Columbia, Missouri. The full conference schedule is available here.

Dear Mathematics Educator,

I am part of a research project at the University of Missouri at Columbia studying how teachers flip their mathematics instruction. The project is currently recruiting teacher participants. This email is asking for your participation in a short survey (~5 minutes) about flipped mathematics instruction. The link of the survey is below:

The purpose of this survey is to gather information about your background with flipped instruction. Participants who complete the survey will be entered into a drawing to win one of three $100 Visa Gift Cards. Completing the survey does not obligate you to any further participation.

Thank you for your time,

Zandra de Araujo, Samuel Otten, and the Flipped Study Team
