Flipped Lesson Math at OAME

This past week I had the fortune of presenting at the OAME with several great people. The Flipped Inquiry Team was a group of incredible teachers from around TCDSB that wanted to study the affects behind a flipped approach to learning. As part of this team I was able to play around with new ideas and challenge my own professional development. My class became a richer community and continued the shift to a more student centred class. My math lessons and teacher talk became delegated to a 5 minute video and class time opened up for students to play and explore with the math. Class questions are focused on taking ideas from theory to Real World problems.

It was a great honour to be able to talk at the OAME and present the ideas I had been playing with for the past several months.
