Flipping my world a little

I am going to try using the flipped classroom model this year.  I teach ICT and Art and for the first half of this term my Year 10’s ICT class is doing digital design.  We do have problems with our internet speed and some students do not have the internet at home but some have smart phones so I’ll encourage them to use those.

This is the homework worksheet I’ve created for them, it’s not great but it’s a start.  I’m also going to introduce them toDiigo.com and QR codes so those with smart phones can interact that way.   This first exercise is for students to learn about digital image sizes and file types and as they are only asked to create a Facebook profile picture they should be well motivated.
