Today was one of those days. We have a reduced schedule today to make room for Activity Day. This was a reward for the students and staff donating over 3000 items of food for our district food bank program. But on with the update. Since we only had 35 minutes a class with many absent we still went on with the show. Since doing the flip and using LiveBinders today's discussions, work etch were posted to the binder.
However, students are already getting used to it and asked if they needed to check the LiveBinder for homework. So they are training themselves too.
We have found an issue though. It seems since I embed google apps in my LiveBinders IE does not like it. Thus, I have told the students to either use Google Chrome (default browser at school) or Firefox. Not a big deal but a bug that can be eliminated for next year.
Today's positive and take away: Students making an effort to use the new tools and I am feeling better prepared and organized.
I would like to acknowledge the help and support I am getting from my #flipclass PLN on Twitter. Good people to follow too. @bennettscience @ramusallam @chemicalsams @jonbergmann @jcorripo Thanks guys!
