one of those schools is new york's eastchester middleol. scho john blaser teaches sixth, there. welcome. >> hi. it's a pleasure to be here. >> and it's great to have you. so, just what is a flipped classroom? >> well, a flipped classroom is where you do the classwork at home and the homework in class. >> okay. so, how exactly does that happen? >> well, what we do is record screencasts, or videos, of me teaching the class. we put them online so that you can watch them at home, and then when you come into class, you're all ready to do the assignment once >> so, this is actually a combination of two ideas, then. it's a flipped classroom, but it's also online learning. >> yes, because the videos of me teaching the class are online, and you go to the website where they are, and that's where you view the videos. >> why did you decide that this was such a good thing to do? >> well, i wanted the students to be able to work at their own pace. some students, some of you like take more time on an assignment. and it also gives me more time to work with you individually in class. >> well, ha
