Digital - Blending learning
Flipped lesson videos.
Try the flipped task in class - flipped task where they watch the video lesson / instruction in class and work with the students to apply the task.
Negatives
Time to create them.
Will junior students utilize and go back to the videos?
Positives
Students able to go back to the video for future reference
Thoughts
How could it be managed in a junior classroom to ensure students are getting the value from the flipped learning?
Collaboration
To get genuine collaboration you need to be honest (make yourself vulnerable) about the stuff you are not good at so you can collaborate well together.
Other ways for blending learning
Start learning in class and then get them to extend (flipped flipped learning)
If students aren't learning then what can I do or change to help them?
The power of research when trying to make change with colleagues, here is the research that supports what I am proposing and here is the data. Here is the impact. If you would like to try something different show me the research!
Flipped classroom type approached uses a blended approach with a mix of online and brick and mortar.
Writing - blended learning
Using book creator, write about etc with some of class to make writing time more manageable and focus on those not on devices.

Distributed leadership
Jones (n.d.) defines distributed leadership as action by many people working collectively across the institution to build leadership capacity in learning and teaching. It differs from other, more traditional, approaches to building leadership capacity in which the traits, skills and behaviours of individual leaders are emphasised.
High trust mode and embrace failing. Vision and values. Build the culture for distributed leadership
