I "flipped" my Anatomy & Physiology class many years ago. This means that I recorded all of my lessons for students to watch at home so that we would have more time in class for hands-on activities.
Back then it was a LOT of work to record videos. Today, it's a LOT easier.
My latest video is all about creating videos for your students. It's not as hard as you might think!

Is anyone attending MACUL next week in Detroit?
I first attended this conference back in 2005 when I was a student at Spring Arbor University. My EdTech professor invited all of his students to attend and said he would take anyone who came out to dinner. I was a poor college student, so this seemed like a pretty good deal!
I've been attending ever since!

My latest video is for teachers who are new to Google Classroom. Most of the existing videos I found on YT were old and out of date. This video is a quick start guide to using Google Classroom in 2025!
