Students of a flipped classroom.

So that’s what a flipped classroom looks like. I had heard the phrase being used before, to refer to a class in which the students watched videos at home and worked in the classroom. However I wasn’t too familiar with the concept, and I must say adjusting to the format is going to take some getting used to.

Having said that, I’m hoping to make the best out of the model and have more freedom to learn by myself. I’m also hoping this will be the case with my classmates, as well.

I’ll leave this video about the topic here. It’s worth checking out!

The first time I tried to install Cygwin, it took about two hours before the program finally sent the message just about everyone hopes for when they install anything: installation failed. Yup, it wasn’t a great start but I was determined to make it right so I watched this video:

It was helpful, though not as simple as watching Ken’s video, which in the end was the one that saved me from all the utter confusion that developed through several nights of trying to install ALL Cygwin packages and inevitably failing. And that was okay as long as I learned from that particular mistake, which is storming into anything really without any previous preparation.
