Flipping My Classroom

These are the materials from a presentation I put together for the North Carolina Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCCTM) conference in October 2012, on my experiences flipping my Geometry and Advanced Functions and Modeling (AFM) classes. Feel free to download and use anything you find here.

• www.misterbledsoe.com – This is my current class website, which contains a bunch of class lecture videos, guided notes, worksheets, and more.
• Powerpoint slides

Handouts from the presentation

• A sample set of guided notes and worksheet (Geometry) that go with this lecture video.
