I watched the video. The idea of "flipping a classroom" -having students go home and watch the lesson (at their own pace) and then do the "homework" with the teacher in the classroom, makes sense. My wife is a doctor and while she was in medical school many of her lectures were streamed. She could fast-forward the speed, pause and rewind when needed. Why shouldn't a 5th grader have the same option? One size does NOT fit all and this new approach recognizes this and does a great deal to address it.
-Great post
