Module 1: Introduction and Overview ​(15 minutes)
Contains introductory information necessary to complete the course, guidance re screencasting software options, preparation for Session 5 (Creating instructional videos). Participants are not required to purchase any software although may choose to do so.
Module 2: A Flipped Mathematics Classroom? Why and How   (30 minutes)
​The flipped mathematics classroom explained. Some advantages, issues and obstacles to be aware of. Examples of flipped units are provided.
Module 3: Student-centered learning ​(30 minutes)
Arguably, the most important aspect of the flipped classroom is the fact that it promotes student-centered learning. This module looks at the issues around student-centered learning and the management of student-centered learning in the context of the mathematics classroom.
Module 4: Sourcing and sharing quality media (1 hour)​
After exploring different types of mathematics videos participants are coordinated to search, find and share several, quality instructional videos resulting in each participant gaining multiple, quality videos across multiple topics.
Module 5: Preparation - Creating instructional screencasts  (1 hour)​
This module is an overview of the planning process required for creating screencast videos and includes the pros and cons of producing ‘scribbling’ videos as well as some example snippets from videos created by past participants.​
Module 6: Screen capture options(30 minutes)
​
Capturing your screen’ is an important skill for creating flipped units. Some screen capture tools also record video but come with some related issues which are explored.
