2. Purpose
• To use digital learning to enhance the
learning experiences and attainment of
pupils.
• To use research based digital learning
methods to help inform the digital learning
strategy for Angus.
3. Who is involved?
• 54 pupils studying physics with Mr Bailey
– 17 pupils studying N4 or N5 Physics class 4PhyC1
– 18 pupils studying N5 (11) or Higher Physics (7) class
4/5PhyD1
– 19 pupils studying Higher Physics, class 5PhyE
4. How will the learning be different?
• The learning in the classes will use a
flipped learning approach.
5. Flipped learning
• Teacher prepares/selects materials for
pupils to access instruction on
concept/topic outside of class
• Pupils:
– Read information and make notes
– Watch digital videos and summarise
– Read instructions for practical work.
– Do the above then answer simple questions
using the examples provided.
6. Flipped learning
• More class time is devoted to active
learning, practical work, extension
activities and supporting individuals.
• Pupils receive support from teacher and
peers as needed when doing the more
challenging tasks.
• Teacher’s role is mainly to facilitate
student-led learning.
7. Impact on learner
• More time for:
– Practising and applying knowledge and skills
– Completing higher order tasks since simpler
tasks are completed at home.
– Questioning and higher level discussions
– Collaborative learning
– Independent and student-led learning
– Individualised support
8. Impact on learner
• Improved engagement in learning
• Increased knowledge and understanding
• Greater confidence
• Greater awareness of strengths and
weaknesses
• Increased independent learning skills
• Increased progress and attainment
9. Some challenges
• Access to technology
• Identifying appropriate online resources
• Pupils not doing homework
• Pupils not comfortable with independent
learning, lack of persistence
10. Access to technology
• Providing all pupils with a Surface device
means all pupils have a suitable resource
to use.
• Pupils are able to access the school library
(before school and at lunchtimes) to
complete their homework if they do not
have access to Wi-Fi at home.
11. Access to technology
• Most resources are contained in OneNote,
this keeps a copy of the resource on the
Surface so most learning can still be done
without Wi-Fi
• Pupils need to bring the device to school
for every physics lesson
12. appropriate digital resources
• Existing resources previous supplied on
paper can be adapted and reused digitally.
• Videos within Glow and some on YouTube
are also suitable .
13. • Videos and explanations can be made by
the teacher.
• Flipped learning is not all about videos
some tasks are reading, summarising in
own words and questions.
appropriate digital resources
14. Homework not done
• Not a new problem, existing school
procedures can be used.
• If not done they will:
– Be unable to complete the harder learning in
class.
– Find discussions difficult.
– Be unable to do the more complex tasks
– Will not know what to do
15. Homework not done
• Pupils will be asked to complete the work
in class and only carry out collaborative
learning and receive individual support
once the homework task has been
completed.
16. Independent Learning
• Carnoustie High School are already
working hard on improving pupils
persistence.
• We encourage pupils to have a growth
mindset and recognise that struggle is an
essential part of learning.
• The tasks set at home will be lower order
and more straightforward so completion
possible.
17. Independent Learning
• Difficulties and lack of understanding are a
starting point for the peer and teacher
discussion in class. Helping each other
understand has been shown to be an
excellent way to learn.
• The harder work in class will have support
of peers and the teacher.
19. Prototype start
• Devices issued to parents/pupils who are
present tonight.
• Other devices will be issued tomorrow if
Acceptable use agreement and parental
permission returned.
• Protective cases are due to arrive in
school on Monday and will then be issued
to pupils.
24. Classroom
• Shows assignments / homework
• Assignments may contain links to files to
read/do tasks.
• Assignment has access to the class
OneNote
• Assignments can be returned back to the
teacher for marking or review.
25. OneNote
• Online app in Glow and desktop 2016
version
• A digital ring binder of resources
27. Class Yammer group to share information with pupils about
lessons and homework. Pupils collaborate with each other to
provide support.

28. Any questions?
• We will be continually evaluating the
prototype, please get in touch with myself
or Mr McInally with any issues or
comments.
