  Case: Flipped Classrooms
I have been using a flipped classroom this school year. As a middle school teacher, I have loved the function. I can post attachments (worksheets, etc.), assign quizzes, have the site post quizzes according to the standards I request, or post homework and discussion board topics. Additionally, the quizzes are graded and broken down as advanced, proficient, basic, and below basic for each standard tested. The names and grades are submitted via a report to the teacher. I can post videos or podcasts explaining, etc. This is a great resource. The question is can I make it a requirement for all students as they have the technology to use this resource?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If you know for sure that they have the technology to use the resource, I think it would be ok to make it a requirement. It would be important to be flexible with students and parents and understand that issues may arise. You can create a plan for situations when technology fails or if circumstances change and a student no longer has access to the technology needed. Also, I would get the parents input about making it a requirement and see what their opinion is.

Comments: I'd send a parent questionnaire home to be sure that all your students have internet access at the beginning of the year. If everyone does have access, then I'd say it's okay to make it a requirement, but allow plenty of time for completion. There are many variables in the at-home Internet scenario, and I'd hate for a student to be penalized because their big sister wouldn't get off the computer. If not all students have access, then no.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I might do this. I like how having a plan for when technology fails or circumstances happen and students do not have access.

Comments: Important thing with this solution is stressing that the teacher knows for certain the students have the resources to utilize this technology.
