Purpose Statement
Flipping the classroom creates a learning environment that promotes creativity, higher order thinking, analytic, and problem solving skills. Flipping the classroom creates opportunities for increased engagement, creativity, synthesis, and authentic assessment. Students are able to receive immediate feedback on the task at hand while referring to a video lesson for continued support. The software Camtasia best supports the needs of a flipped classroom due to its versatility and ease of use.
Abstract
This presentation seeks to demonstrate the many benefits of utilizing the screen recording and video editing software Camtasia as educators work on flipping their classrooms. Because understanding how the use of technology such as Camtasia when flipping a classroom is so critical in making that transition successful, this research can provide more important insights. The data used in this presentation comes from online journals, reviewed journals, tech help forums, and technology related professional organizations. Specifically, this research focuses on the use of TechSmith’s software, Camtasia, to successfully flip a classroom. Throughout this process, we have found that Camtasia allows for successful implementation of a flipped classroom through the use of lessons that incorporate not only voice over capabilities but also through the use of video and screen capturing.
