This is a video tutorial to show how the "flipped classroom approach" works.
It is a new way of enhancing students' learning : they watch the video at home as many times they want, taking notes of what they see and, above all, they do not understand. It is very important
because they can share their doubts with their classmates and be helped by the teacher whose role is , in this case, as a "coach /tutor".
Secondly , they can do all the activities , exercises in groups so that they can collaborate together .
Finally, the teacher can ask them to produce something original : it means that students are required to put into practise and re- elaborate the topic in
a personal way ,using apps previously suggested and explained by the teacher.
The outcomes should be "authentic" or "real" , that is, their final products have to show their creativity and the skills of getting a personalised production in a real context
.
