Mr. Shank implemented "Flipped Fridays" today, 8/31/12.  He had his classes view a video on the lesson he wanted to cover as a Thursday night assignment, and he had the students fill out a "WIPit" form.

"WIPit" stands for:
 "Watch it, Internalize it, Ponder it"
The students filled out the form to keep them actively engaged as they watched the video.

I'm excited and curious to see how things went with this.  You can follow Mr. Shank on Twitter @JUSTIN_SHANK.

The website he uses for his math classes is: https://sites.google.com/site/shanklbmath/
Click on a class (Algebra 2 or Pre-Calculus) and see how he has his class information organized on his site.
