Flipped Learning #WSQ04

When I heard my professor say that we are going to use a new style of learning I thought it would be as other friends that already took this course told me. But no, this time Ken Bauer decided to apply his new study method. Now everyone was “Free”, not exactly free because we still need a grade for the Institution.

With this new study method that Ken Bauer is using I learned everything I needed to learn and more relaxed than ever.

Everytime I have this class I come to the classroom and feel as I actually need to be. This class was the only one in which I felt this. I learned at my own rate, and I finished every work in time and well done.

This image is what I was supposed to feel every Tuesday and Friday, but with this new learning experience I felt the opposite.

In my experience in this first part of the Semester with this type of learning I lived a completely new school sensation. This should be used in every class, in every school. Believe me, there’s nothing better than not having to worry in delivering projects in a small period of time and in top of that a ridiculous grade for your pesonal effort. I was actually learning at my own rhythm and not coming to a borring class in which I need to follow at everytime the professor while taking forced notes.

#FlippedLearning #AbolishGrades is the best class experience a college student can have.

ABOLISH GRADES -tec21-

Este sistema educativo, transfiere este tipo de aprendizaje por fuera del salón de clases, con el objetivo de que el alumno pueda aprender un poco mas pero por su propia cuenta. así pues el alumno se encarga de investigar, preguntar, conocer e incluso experimentar sus mismos conocimientos.

Cada decisión tiene sus pros y contras y tal vez para muchas personas puede ser una brillante idea, sin embargo para otras pudiera no ser tan genial. pues el éxito en el aprendizaje de este modalidad depende de la forma de aprender y retener las conocimientos de cada persona. Así pues una persona muy desorganizada, no aprovechara el tiempo de clases y dejará todo pendiente para el ultimo, sin embargo, quien esta al tanto de sus pendientes y los jerarquiza, sabrá que por el momento no puede prestar mucha atención a dicha materia/tarea/clase pero sabrá que en algún momento deberá dedicar ese tiempo perdido que se utilizó para otras cosas. todo depende aquí de la buena organización en tiempos del alumno. puedo concluir diciendo que este método de aprendizaje se me hace muy útil para mi, pues se cuando y en momento debo y puedo entregar mis pendientes sin necesidad de hacer mis trabajos solamente por entregarlos, obtener una calificación y pasar el curso.

WSQ04 – Flipped Learning / #AbolishGrades

Flipped Classroom es un tipo de auto estudio, en el cual la función del profesor es el apoyar al alumno mas que nada en dudas y/o dificultades que se presenten, esto significa que el alumno estudia por su propia cuenta.

Yo le veo a este tipo de aprendizajes cosas buenas y cosas malas, entre las cosas buenas está la no presión por parte del profesor al realizar y entregar trabajos, por lo cual hay mas libertad en ese aspecto, esa característica tiene también una posible consecuencia mala, ¿Cuál es? El hecho de que el alumno no tenga presión para poder entregar un trabajo en un tiempo corto, puede que vuelva al alumno un poco flojo e irresponsable al no ir al ritmo de la clase, lo que conlleva a que no aprenda del todo lo que se ve en la clase.

¿Este tipo de aprendizaje me gusta? Si, si me gusta, por el hecho de que el estudiante no se siente tan presionado como en una clase normal, y puedo ir a mi ritmo, por lo que aprendo mejor.

#WSQ04 – Flipped Learning / #AbolishGrades

Its very intersting concept to abolish grade, because sometimes you know all the stuff that you have seen in class but your grade does not match with you knowledge. If you want to learn you will do it no matter what, and if you want to lose your time youre gonna do it and its not the teacher fault if students didnt came with any doubts to the classroom. But by grading them you are adding compromise to just do the stuff in order to pass and not in order to learn.

Flipped Learning

es ahora la forma más innovadora para que los estudiantes reciben conocimientos. Flipped learning
consiste en reducir la cantidad de clases impartidas en las aulas e implementar un nuevo sistema. En flipped learning los profesores podrán subir su material para que los estudiantes puedan tener acceso a ella en la comodidad de sus hogares. Sin embargo, este material no se daría en una presentación durante una sesión. Por otro lado, los estudiantes van a estudiar su material en casa y repasar en clase. De esta manera, los estudiantes pueden hacer preguntas durante las sesiones y tienen la oportunidad de resolver sus dudas más claramente con la ayuda de sus profesores. Esta innovación en la educación permite a los estudiantes que tienen problemas de comunicación verbal acercarse a sus profesores directamente en lugar de levantar la mano en frente a sus compañeros de clase. Sin embargo, este procedimiento tal vez nunca sea utilizado por los estudiantes: Esto hará que algunos de ellos pierdan su tiempo y terminen haciendo todo en el último minuto en lugar de sólo la gestión de su tiempo de manera eficiente.

#AbolishGrading

All this thing about learning by myself and no-grading its actually new for me and for many of us. At first this could sound really difficult because it is something we are not used to, but when the time passes you get to notice all the things that u have learn and mostly by yourself or asking to your classmates.

This way of learning can teach you not only the topics you are suposed to learn, also it teach you to be responsible, organize and helps you to learn to ask, something which I considere really difficult.

Today I can say that abolish grading its weird, yes, but even it is, I like it necause I can see all those things I learn and Im proud of it.

#WSQ04, REFLEXIÓN

El nuevo método de estudios que se está llevando a cabo, sobre abolir las calificaciones me parece un excelente método pues no limita a un estudiante a tener una nota solo porque vale algo, si no que lo motiva a hacerlo para ver el cuanto puede ganar en aprendizaje al hacerlo, siento que esto podría traer mejores resultados también el no hacer exámenes tal cual, si no, entregas, o simplemente no hacer preguntas concisas de algún tema si no meramente ver lo que se ha aprendido, dejar que el alumno diga realmente lo que el sabe y no lo limiten a decir que no se supo esas 10 preguntas que pudieron haber venido plasmadas en un examen, pues tal vez esas no se las sabía, pero podría haber sabido muchísimo más del tema que eso.

El método de Abolish Grades, simplemente yo lo definiría como una excelente manera de hacer que el propio alumno explote sus habilidades tanto como el quiera, que el mismo se ponga el limite para ver cuanto aprendizaje quiere tener, también, a al no haber una rubrica del conocimiento, este puede ser más diverso y eficaz, por lo cual yo opino que es un gran método académico.

#WSQ04 Flipped Learning

WHAT DO WE THINK ABOUT FLIPPED LEARNING, and Ken’s way to evaluate?

Well to begin I would like to say that Lecturing in front of a class can be boring for both the students and the teacher, and the outcome is sleeping students and no learning at all, the way teacher try to teach us is unreliable at this time, because most students would rather work on their own instead of hearing to the teacher for 1:15 hours, that is the main problem with having a lecturing class, instead what the flipped learning is asking for the students to help themselves to learn, by working in teams or asking everyone in order classrooms whether they know or not, students may also ask for help of the teacher, but always remembering that the main teachers are ourselves.

Another thing to talk about is the way Ken evaluates his students, to me this is the perfect way, because we show ourselves what we are capable of, and in case we couldn’t do it, it is ok because we have our fellow classmates and friends who might help us easily. By abolishing grades, we don’t have the pressure to know that we need to study everything a night before to “pass” the parcial. WE JUST SHOW WHAT WE CAN DO, AND WHAT WE KNOW!!!

Flipped learning WSQ04

Hello my friends!! Today I´m going to talk about a little bit about flipped learning and what I think about it.

First of all, the flipped learning (as the name suggest) is different than the usual method of learning, in the flipped learning method you don’t have pressure and you have to learn by yourself, the pressure is as much as you want, I will leave some videos and links with more information:

http://www.theflippedclassroom.es/what-is-innovacion-educativa/

In my opinion (and experience) I think is a good method, in fact I think is better than the usual method, but you need to be very responsable, because the teacher won’t teach you, yeah probably the teacher will help when you don’t understand, but the flipped learning is learning by your self, that is ok, I guess.

Ok ok, I know I’m a little late… well, very late to be posting this WSQ, but the point is to do it and learn while doing it right? There are no due dates 🙂 . After watching the video a I got a little excited. That seriously looks like a better way of learning. The Tec should apply that method of watching the lesson at home and then solving questions in class. I think there is a a bright future ahead with learning processes. In ken’s class it might seem like he isn’t teaching you anything but in fact he is doing just what he needs to do. I have learned so much in his class even though he only gave us one lecture (the first day of class), it’s surprising.

From the three links that ken gave us, I think the one that I liked the most was this one An A+ student regrets his grades because what he says is so true. I don’t want to brag but over the years I too have gotten good grades and to be honest I don’t remember a lot of the things that I saw in previous classes. Lets be straight you don’t need to be smart to get good grades, you don’t need to know the information. All you need is some imagination and “maña” to get into your professors head. I personally hate History class and believe I got good grades in that class but I hardly remember even who Benito Juarez is. I don’t even remember what I did to ace that class.

On the other hand there is science. I love science, I kind of a nerd because I remember studying math and chemistry all by myself when I was little. The first semester at the
