"This sounds very interesting. I like the strategy for handling both levels in the same classroom. Do you think any non-AP will eventually want to make the switch to AP?"

AP Results after 1st year (almost a full year) of Flipping

Profile Information
Current Set-up of My Flipped Classroom:
[1] Videos created by Camtasia shared 48 hours prior to class. (We are alternating 75 min block).
[2] Students are sent a google form asking them to summarize the lesson and submit one question they had after viewing.
[3] In class students typically have 3 sets of 4 problems to complete. The first is done alone to ensure basic individual understanding of the video. Notes and textbook are allowed. The second two they may work in groups. Each set must by 100% correct before I will give the next. Students who do not finish will only take 1 sheet home with at at time.
