Hello everyone! This post will be about creating a grammar teaching video for a flipped EFL classroom that our lecturer gave us as a task. For this task, Buse and I worked together. That's why I’m going to talk about my experiences while doing this.
A flipped classroom is an educational approach that tries to improve student engagement and learning by having students complete readings at their homes and concentrate on interactive problem-solving throughout class hours. Students can select when, how, and where they want to examine instructional materials prior to lessons in a flipped classroom; accountability moves from teachers to students, creating a student-centered educational process. As we can see, the flipped classroom has a lot of advantages. For instance: it improves academic performance & learning motivation, and allows teachers to have more time to guide students and give them differentiated feedback. On the other hand, the main disadvantage of a flipped classroom is that it may need extra preparation time.
In the task, our target audience was high school prep students with A1 through A2 levels of English. Therefore, we decided to prepare a video about If Conditional Type 2. In our video, we first made a dialogue about the subject, then briefly talked about the grammatical rules. We wanted to make a colorful, animated video so that the video would attract students' attention. Thus, we used the Animaker. At first, we had a hard time using the application. After spending a certain time in the app, we started to use it comfortably. Finally, we added 2 quizzes at the end of the video to make the knowledge students learn permanent.
Here is our video and here are our quizzes. See you in a new post next week !!
