Filming a Flipped Classroom Video

 Hi everyone :) First, I should explain what a flipped classroom is. It is an approach where the learning material is given outside the classroom in a technological tool, and in-class, there is more time to practice and use different activities to enhance the learning process. 

The advantages of this approach in language classes, the students are free to listen and watch the video that is provided whenever they feel is the most appropriate time. They can watch it over and over again to make sure that they have learned the topic adequately whereas in a traditional, in-class approach they are not able to achieve that.  

As for the disadvantages, access to technology may be not possible for each student. Also, if the teacher is not qualified enough to  use technology properly, the creation process of the video could be challenging. 

Our task this time was to create a flipped classroom video whether choosing a grammar or vocabulary topic. We chose the vocabulary one with my partner Yaren Güleç, because we thought that it would be more fun to create it. First, we chose our topic "Animal Shelter" from the 5th grade book. We thought that creating a story to implement the words to our students would be fitting. After the story, we gave other words that were not mentioned in the story. After giving all the words, we repeated some of them and also created a quiz by using Wordwall templates. We did not have any problems because we were next to each other, we recorded our voices and added over our Canva presentation template. Overall, we had fun completing this task :)
