Episode 040 – FlipTech Latin America 2019 with Kate Baker

Show Notes

This week is a little different as Ken chats with Kate Baker about our experiences last week at FlipTech Latin America 2019 in Bogotá, Colombia.

I apologize for some audio issues. I have recently switched from using Google Hangouts to using Zoom for my recording and still working on my production chain. It seems that some of the audio was skipping out during the recording. That is combined with a change of my microphone setup. I need to get my setup improved here going forward.

This episode was recorded on October 2, 2019.

If you would like to support The Flipped Learning Network which is a not-for-profit, we have added a full selection below.

About our Guest

Kate Baker, M.Ed and MAIT, is the Senior Community Engagement Manager at Edmodo, a former English teacher at Southern Regional High School in Manahawkin, NJ, and a contributing ​author of Flipping 2.​0​: Practical Strategies for Flipping Your Classroom.

With two decades of teaching experience, Kate adeptly integrates technology in her professional development experiences using flipped and blended learning strategies. Passionate about evolving authentic learning into digital formats, Kate leads by example and shares her expertise through Twitter chats, blogging, and presentations at regional, national, and international conferences, as well as in the global Edmodo Community.

You can connect with Kate on Twitter @KtBkr4 and read about her teaching techniques on her blog, Baker’s BYOD (kbakerbyodlit.blogspot.com).

We did not address any questions from the community but we welcome more questions to add to our program.

Links from the Show

Note that the Flipped Learning Network is a non-profit and we use an Amazon Affiliate link in our URLs to Amazon.com resources. This costs nothing extra to you if you follow that link but any purchases after clicking through that link (even those not related to that link) generate a small amount of revenue for the FLN.

Support the Show and the FLN

The Flipped Learning Network is a not-for-profit organization and runs on a small budget. Our costs are indeed low (web hosting, some legal and financial fees and paying for the support of a wonder community manager Kelly Walsh) and we are run by volunteers. If you would like to support the FLN, please contact us via any of the following options:

  • We have a Patreon Page where you can become a monthly patron for as low as USD$1 per month.
  • If you would like to make a one time donation, that is always an option via cheque sent to our offices or a donation via PayPal. Just ask us.
  • If you make purchases at Amazon, you can follow our affiliate link to make any purchases on their site. This costs you nothing but a small percentage of your purchase goes to us at the Flipped Learning Network. This is for the USA based store but it may be possible to arrange setting up “shop” on other Amazon worldwide sites.
  • If you are interested in the “Flipped Learning Certified Level-1” (in English or Spanish) certifications from the Flipped Learning Global Initiative, please follow our affiliate link to sign up.
  • See our “How to Support the FLN” page for more details including a link to our Sponsorship page where you can be listed as a Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum sponsor.
  • Our main contact page on the website.

Transcript

I’ve been personally negligent in not pursuing an option to improve accessibility with transcripts of the show. I see the work that Bonni Stachowiak has done with her “Teaching in Higher Ed” podcast as well as the work of Deepak Shenoy on his podcast “Open Education Rising”. The trick here is cost and I don’t know the solution just yet. Producing about 90 minutes of podcasts per month would require about USD$100 per month. We would love to have a sponsor for that or perhaps link that as one of our goals on our Patreon Page.

Podcasters and Guests

We now have a stable crew of two podcast hosts on the network. I (Ken Bauer) will be hosting the bulk of the AskTheFLN episodes but we may have some other hosts popping in from time to time. Lately, Matthew Moore has been busy with his own podcast “The Teachers Lounge” which is also hosted here at the Flipped Learning Network. You should check out that podcast as well. I hope to personally keep a bi-weekly schedule going forward.

If you would like to join us as a guest on the podcast or would like to suggest someone to be a guest, please contact either Matthew or myself via Twitter.

I would also like to remind everyone that anyone contributing to the community that is the Flipped Learning Network actually *is* part of the Flipped Learning Network. We are a community and grow together by pooling our resources. See how you can contribute to this community through contributing blog posts, joining us on this podcast as well as participating in our Slack community.
