TedEd makes it Simple to flip a lesson!

Thanks in part to a summer class, "Teaching and Learning with Online Tools" taught by Stephanie Gosselin at Westford Academy, I have experimented with some really cool tools this summer.

One of the most awesome is "Find and Flip" from TEDEd.
This user friendly tool walks you through the process of finding a curriculum related YouTube video and then creating associated online quizzes, discussions, and follow-up activities for your students. When you are done, you have a 'flipped lesson'!
 
Once you are happy with your lesson, make it public so that other teachers in the TEDEd community can copy and modify it for their own classrooms.

An exemplar lesson and great introduction to the process is 5 Historical Misconceptions.

I used TEDEd's Find and Flip tool to create a lesson on Notetaking

(target audience: Middle School students in my "research classes")

Here is a short overview of how it TEDEd Find and Flip works
