"The classroom spaces are flexible and allow for easy transition from a lecture format to group discussion. Students can reserve a variety of group study rooms by using iPads mounted outside of the rooms. “Learning lounges” are located on each level and provide space for meeting and help manage the large numbers of students congregating outside of classrooms before and after class. A naturally lit central stair links the interior spaces together and acts as a wayfinding tool." (Building Design+Construction, 2018).

I think that this scoop relates to our readings this week because it talks about The ability to obtain, assimilate and apply the right knowledge effectively, will become a key skill in the next century. Our ability will no longer be judged solely by qualifications gained in the past, but will also be assessed by our capacity to learn and adapt in the future.

Point taken - in fact I thought that the given was that the flipped classroom style encouraged more active learning in class - where the teacher could mentor and where they were learning with their collaborators.
What is lacking for me in this article is retention level and what they are learning while they are learning. Are they just learning the skills and facts or are they also learning how collaborate with other using the facts. Did they just test once for these 'learning outcomes' mentioned or will retention be longterm.
I guess I need to read the study!

Agreed, content curation is important. Fortunately, we have access to some tools to support this process!

All students are unique. They learn in different ways, at different paces, and have different interests. Each has potential waiting to be unlocked, so that they may excel and achieve their personal best. K12 educators are making bold curriculum moves to address the unique needs of every student. Personalized learning solutions for ELA and math empower school leaders and educators with the ability to address these unique needs, while still charting a course toward standards mastery. Educational experiences are dynamically individualized to ensure each student remains challenged, engaged, and supported along their learning path. Via Carlos Fosca

We need to break out of these limiting ways of thinking. We need to take dense materials and “unpack” them, storify them, have students get active and hands-on, break ideas down into simpler understandable terms, analogies, etc. The best teachers excel at this. This is what DeWitt referred to as “the vernacular of teaching”. Via Carlos Fosca
