The flipped classroom takes on a different method to teach. It is a method where students learn the content prior to coming to class through online lectures or videos and then in class they talk about what they learned, ask questions or work on assignments. I have never been in a flipped classroom and I do not think if I would really like it. There have been studies showing the benefits of the flipped classroom and how it can help students, so I think it would be very interesting to try it.

The podcast discussed different "open terms" including open source and open content. one term mentioned in the podcast is "open source". The definition for this term is software that is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified.Open source can be a type of software with a source code that anyone can change, inspect, and enhance. Open source seems like a really great way to allow more students to learn and get educated. Many students cannot afford textbooks or software for their classes and this closes that financial gap.

While I was working on the PowerPoint assignment I had to use many skills. One skill that I acquired was how to make the nonlinear PowerPoint. I had always seen my teachers make fun jeopardy games but I had no idea how to make them. After this assignment I can see myself creating fun games like this for my future classroom. I also enjoyed making the trivia about a show that I really enjoy. Adding the narrations was a fun feature that I have never used either. I think this will come in handy if I ever have to post an online lecture for students to watch.
