Twitter Experience


Upon looking on twitter, there were several accounts that I thought would be useful for any teacher/ future teacher because it gives you feedback on approaches in the classroom and what the approaches actually are. The one I found most interesting and who posted a lot was Eric Sheninger. He is a very well known educator and has almost 50,000 followers. He posted a link on his twitter and it interested me because it was something that we talked about in class. The flipped classroom seemed to be a very good idea in their classroom. According to results, the teachers students scored about 5 points higher on their assignments because of the flipped classroom approach and many of the students seemed to like it a lot. It was interesting for me to see that students were actually excelling because I didn’t honestly think that I would like this approach as a student. It was very cool to see that the lessons could be brought home for extra help and then the students would not be frustrated.
