Flexible Multilingual Education
by Jean-Jacques WeberThis book examines the benefits of multilingual education that puts children's needs and interests above the individual languages involved. It advocates flexible multilingual education, which builds upon children's actual home resources and provides access to both the local and global languages that students need for their educational and professional success. It argues that, as more and more children grow up multilingually in our globalised world, there is a need for more nuanced multilingual solutions in language-in-education policies. The case studies reveal that flexible multilingual education - rather than mother tongue education - is the most promising way of moving towards the elusive goal of educational equity in today's world of globalisation, migration and superdiversity.
Flexible Pedagogy, Flexible Practice: Notes from the Trenches of Distance Education
by Elizabeth Burge Chère Campbell Gibson Terry GibsonFlexibility has become a watchword in modern education, but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter. Flexible Pedagogy, Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts toward flexibility. The collection in international in scope, drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, South Africa, Singapore, and Japan. Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on a series of questions, including: What precisely is flexible learning? Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda, and for whose benefit? And who or what is resisting it? What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flexibility, and what are some of the compromises it can entail?
Flexing Interculturality: Further Critiques, Hesitations, and Intuitions (New Perspectives on Teaching Interculturality)
by Fred Dervin Hamza R'boulThis book continues the two scholars’ endeavours for opening up more spaces for alternative perspectives, analyses and praxis in interculturality. The main text features fragments that bear relevance to a wide range of topics including education, politics, personal experiences, social realities, hierarchies, self-critique, language and locus of enunciation. The book takes a step forward by using fragments as an alternative way of doing research and writing scholarship. The premise here is that fragments are human and they reflect our fleeting, inconsistent and unsystematic production of knowledge that today’s scholarship has presented to be linear, structured and aligned. The authors draw on fragments to make their points as forcefully as possible by constructing sentences that destabilize themselves and readers to consider other paths and perspectives. That is, writing otherwise may propel thinking otherwise since the very bases, upon which we push our insights to mould through and by, are shaken and ultimately transcended. The chapters include questions with (temporary) answers as an attempt to induce readers to think for themselves and to move beyond what this book has to offer. This book will be a great read to scholars and students in the field of interculturality, education and sociology. The authors hope that this book will be seen as a genuine example of de-linking from mainstream writing and thinking conventions about interculturality in communication and education without compromising epistemic depth and nuance.

Flinders Aluminum Fabrication Corporation V. Mismo Fire Insurance Company: Case File, Trial Materials (Nita Ser.)
by Rebecca Sitterly Laurence M. Rose Frank D. RothschildWhen the Flinders Aluminum Fabrication Corporation burns to the ground, killing George Avery, suspicion falls on CEO Arthur Jackson. In fact, Mismo Fire Insurance Company is so certain that the fire was deliberately set that it has denied the insurance claim. Jackson, the sole stockholder in the financially troubled corporation, has filed a civil action to recover damages against Mismo for the denied claim. Mismo asserts that Jackson conspired with others to burn the plant in order to fraudulently collect the insurance policy. Did we mention that the deceased Avery is a suspected “torch” implicated in the burning of two other commercial buildings in Nita City? That reputation isn’t helping Jackson’s case, but he claims he hired Avery, a talented designer, to help him modernize the Flinders plant. The intrigue grows when it is revealed that one of the witnesses against Jackson has a serious axe to grind that could be clouding her vision. This entertaining file presents a well-balanced case that can be also tried as a condensed or an advanced experience.

Flip the System Australia: What Matters in Education
by Deborah M. Netolicky Jon Andrews Cameron PatersonThis is a book by educators, for educators. It grapples with the complexities, the humanity and the possibilities in education. In a climate of competing accountabilities and measurement mechanisms; corporate solutions to education ‘problems’; and narratives of ‘failing’ schools, ‘underperforming’ teachers and ‘disengaged’ students; this book asks ‘What matters?’ or ‘What should matter?’ in education. Based in the unique Australian context, this book situates Australian education policy, research and practice within the international education narrative. It argues that professionals within schools should be supported, empowered and welcomed into policy discourse, not dictated to by top-down bureaucracy. It advocates for a flipping, flattening and democratising of the education system, in Australia and around the world. Flip the System Australia: What matters in education brings together the voices of teachers, school leaders and scholars in order to offer diverse perspectives, important challenges and hopeful alternatives to the current education system.

Flip the System: Changing Education from the Ground Up
by René Kneyber Jelmer EversEducation is threatened on a global scale by forces of neoliberalism, through high stakes accountability, privatization and a destructive language of learning. In all respects, a GERM (Global Education Reform Movement) has erupted from international benchmark rankings such as PISA, TIMMS and PIRL, causing inequity, narrowing of the curriculum and teacher deprofessionalization on a truly global scale. In this book, teachers from around the world and other educational experts such as Andy Hargreaves, Ann Lieberman, Stephen Ball, Gert Biesta, Tom Bennett and many more, make the case to move away from this uneducational economic approach, to instead embrace a more humane, more democratic approach to education. This approach is called 'flipping the system', a move that places teachers exactly where they need to be - at the steering wheel of educational systems worldwide. This book will appeal to teachers and other education professionals around the world.

FlipchartArt: Ideen für Trainer, Moderatoren und Führungskräfte
by Stefanie Widmann Elke Katharina MeyerFlipcharts, klassisch auf Papier beim Präsenztraining oder auf digitalen Whiteboards für Online- Training, sind ein sympathisches Medium. Je souveräner und gezielter man Flipcharts nutzt, desto präziser und eindringlicher kann man Botschaften damit transportieren, die Teilnehmenden zum Mitmachen motivieren und nachhaltige Trainingserfolge erzielen. Gute Flipcharts zu erstellen ist eine Kunst ? aber man muss nicht unbedingt künstlerisch begabt sein, um sie zu erlernen. Folgt man den Tipps, Tricks und praxisnahen Hinweisen im erfolgreichen Buch FlipchartArt der Trainerinnen Elke Meyer und Stefanie Widmann, können alle, die Trainings geben oder Workshops leiten, mit ein wenig à bung zu Flipchart-Profis werden. Für die fünfte Auflage dieses Klassikers haben die Autorinnen ein Kapitel zum Thema Flipcharts in Online-Trainings hinzugefügt. Gerade wegen der ?erschwerten Bedingungen? aufgrund der naturgemäà geringeren Interaktion der Leitenden und Teilnehmenden untereinander helfen die erprobten Flipchart-Techniken im Blick auf Visualisierung, Verständlichkeit und Präzision bei virtuellen Trainings und Workshops ebenso wie bei klassischen Veranstaltungen im Konferenzraum. Mit mehr als 200 Bildern bietet das Buch eine Fülle konkreter Beispiele zur Gestaltung von Flipcharts und eine Palette von Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten, aus denen jeder Anwender mit wenig Aufwand seinen individuellen Stil ableiten kann. Auà erdem stellt es einen Katalog mit Symbolen zu Verfügung, die jeder für sich modifizieren und einsetzen kann.
Flipped Classroom im Mathematikunterricht der Sekundarstufe I am Beispiel der Satzgruppe des Pythagoras: Eine empirische Untersuchung fachbezogener Gestaltungsvarianten und deren Auswirkungen auf den Lernerfolg
by Jennifer RotheDas Medium des Lernvideos rückt zunehmend ins Interesse von Lehrkräften zur Vermittlung mathematischer Inhalte. Lernvideos entfalten ihren größten Nutzen, wenn sie inhaltlich ergänzend zu traditionellen Unterrichtsmedien verwendet werden, wie beispielsweise im Rahmen der Flipped-Classroom-Methode. Zur konkreten Umsetzung geflippten Mathematikunterrichts existiert allerdings kein Standardverfahren. Daher werden in dieser Arbeit zunächst theoriegeleitet fachbezogene Gestaltungselemente geflippten Fachunterrichts konzeptualisiert. Diese beziehen sich auf das Anspruchsniveau des Lernvideoinhalts (gering oder erhöht), die Art dieses Videoinhalts (Einführungs- oder Lösungsbeispielvideos) sowie die Art des Übens in der Präsenzphase (erweitertes Einüben im eigenen Tempo oder Bearbeitung eines Vertiefungsproblems). Diese werden in einer Mixed-Methods-Studie hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung zur Gestaltung von Mathematikunterricht und des zu erwartenden Lernerfolgs im Vergleich zum Regelunterricht untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen einige besonders geeignete Gestaltungsvarianten geflippten Mathematikunterrichts für die Schulpraxis auf, mit denen Teile der Lernenden einen verbesserten Lernerfolg im Vergleich zum Regelunterricht zeigen.
Flipped Classrooms for Legal Education
by Lutz-Christian Wolff Jenny ChanThis book discusses comprehensively the use of Flipped Classrooms in the context of legal education. The Flipped Classroom model implies that lecture modules are delivered online to provide more time for in-class interactivity. This book analyses the pedagogical viability, costs and other resource-related implications, technical aspects as well as the production and online distribution of Flipped Classrooms. It compares the Flipped Classroom concept with traditional law teaching methods and details its advantages and limitations. The findings are tested by way of a case study which serves as the basis for the development of comprehensive guidelines for the concept's practical implementation. As Flipped Classrooms have become a very hot topic across disciplines in recent years, this book offers a unique resource for law teachers, law school managers as well as researchers in the field of legal education. It is a must-have for anyone interested in innovative law teaching methodologies.
Flipped Classrooms with Diverse Learners: International Perspectives (Springer Texts in Education)
by Noi Keng Koh Zachary Walker Desiree TanThis book addresses the background of classroom flipping, explores the theoretical underpinnings for why flipping works, and shares current success stories in practice. It provides diverse international examples of classroom flipping for all ages, includes discussions of the authors’ studies in the context of the existing research, and illustrates the impact that classroom flipping has had across a range of educational settings instead of focusing on a specific domain or learner context. Intended as a handbook for practitioners, the analysis of commonly used, highly effective techniques for learners of various ages fills a major gap in the literature. It offers a valuable resource for educators, helping them make the flipped learning experience an impactful and meaningful one.
Flipped Learning in Physical Education: Opportunities and Applications (Routledge Focus on Sport Pedagogy)
by Ove Østerlie Chad Killian Julia SargentThis is the first book to introduce flipped learning in the context of physical education. It is a timely exploration of pedagogical approaches that draw on digital technologies that can allow learning online and at a distance to support important learning time for physical activity.

Flipped Learning: A Guide for Higher Education Faculty
by Robert TalbertFlipped learning is an approach to the design and instruction of classes through which, with appropriate guidance, students gain their first exposure to new concepts and material prior to class, thus freeing up time during class for the activities where students typically need the most help, such as applications of the basic material and engaging in deeper discussions and creative work with it.While flipped learning has generated a great deal of excitement, given the evidence demonstrating its potential to transform students’ learning, engagement and metacognitive skills, there has up to now been no comprehensive guide to using this teaching approach in higher education.Robert Talbert, who has close to a decade’s experience using flipped learning for majors in his discipline, in general education courses, in large and small sections, as well as online courses – and is a frequent workshop presenter and speaker on the topic – offers faculty a practical, step-by-step, “how-to” to this powerful teaching method.He addresses readers who want to explore this approach to teaching, those who have recently embarked on it, as well as experienced practitioners, balancing an account of research on flipped learning and its theoretical bases, with course design concepts to guide them set up courses to use flipped learning effectively, tips and case studies of actual classes across various disciplines, and practical considerations such as obtaining buy-in from students, and getting students to do the pre-class activities.This book is for anyone seeking ways to get students to better learn the content of their course, take more responsibility for their work, become more self-regulated as learners, work harder and smarter during class time, and engage positively with course material. As a teaching method, flipped learning becomes demonstrably more powerful when adopted across departments. It is an idea that offers the promise of transforming teaching in higher education.
Flipping Academic English Language Learning: Experiences from an American University (SpringerBriefs in Education)
by Erik Voss Ilka KostkaThis book draws on theory, research, and practice-oriented literature to offer an introduction to flipped learning and offer busy instructors advice on how to flip their academic English language courses. The chapters balance theoretical foundations, practical applications, and useful resources for developing materials. The first half of this book defines flipped learning and academic English, describes how it supports English language learning, and explains the role of technology, as well as issues with accountability and feedback. The second half of the book then makes connections between the theoretical issues presented in the first three chapters and the practical applications in the following chapters, which provide lesson descriptions and assessment ideas for language learning contexts with or without access to technology. The book concludes with a list of tools and technologies for developing materials and activities, as well as additional resources for professional development and further exploration of flipped English language learning.
