Gamification

Flipped
Classroom

A game that students might play is

memory. Once we have understood the
concept it will be important for the
students to understand and review the
concept. By using the learning
management system, there might be a
way to create a memory game by using a
quiz. This will allow the students gain a
better understand of the system but also
to understand how it works as well.

Students will
focus on
learning the
material at
home and then
when they
come to class
they can
brainstorm
and work with
their time to
create the
assignment
and the game
that will help
them better
understand
what needs to
be said and
what needs to
be done.

Teachers will
help students
brainstorm
different
ways they
can use
Pinterest and
LMS to create
different
ways of
learning
properties
and
operations.

Students will
get together
in teams and
focus on one
operation and
come together
to create an
assignment to
post on the
Learning
Management
System for the
rest of the
class to
accomplish.

Creating
Creating
because the
students are
creating
something new.
They are
working to
make the
assignment
user friendly as
well as make
sure the fellow
classmates are
able to learn
what the
operation is
from the
assignment. Or
apply what
they learned
from it to
evaluate the
classmates
learning.

Teachers will have

students work in
their teams to
develop their
assignment for the
learning
management
system. This will
be strictly student
lead and they will
have to pick the
standard that their
lesson best relates
to and the amount
of time and things
needed for the
students to
complete the
lesson. All the
teacher will do is
give them the
topic and the rest
is up to them.

Teachers will
model
different uses
of the LMS
and the
Pinterest
board. The
teacher will
show
effective but
smart ways
to use both
for reading.

Students will
create a
pretend
Pinterest
board. They
will Google
different ways
you can read
and the
effectiveness
of the activity.
Students will
create the
pretend
Pinterest
board and use
it to help them
in the best
way possible.

Applying

Students might
use applying
because they
will apply what
they have
learned about
using Pinterest
and use it to
better
understand
what to use in
that type of
situation.
Maybe even go
as far as
creating their
own kind of
Pinterest that is
strictly just
books and
things like that.

Students will be
the prime person
in charge. The
teacher will briefly
explain what it is
and how to use it
and then it will be
there job to figure
out a way to use it
to the best of their
ability.

Students will create a game that allows

them to better understand the functions
of Pinterest. It will be important for them
to have fun with Pinterest before they
have to use it for some sort of
assignment. By creating a situation online
and really getting students engaged it
may allow them to feel more confident in
being able to do whatever it is that they
need to do.

The flipped
classroom
would be the
students
brainstorming
things to do at
home and then
coming to
school ready
to
communicate
with their
group
members on
the best way
to execute the
project and
really allow the
students to
grow and
change in that.

Teachers will
use their
knowledge of
Colorado
History to
help model
digital tools
that will
helps
students
better
understand
Colorado
Government
and the
functions and
origins of the
government.
They will find
this
assignment
on the LMS.

Students will
use the
knowledge of
the Colorado
Government
and take that
into their
investigation
for the Mock
Trial that will
take place.
They will look
further into
the crime that
the teacher
provided and
use tools
online to help
them better
understand.

Creating

Creating will
work because
once the
students
understand and
investigate
they will need
to start
creating their
defense or their
statement. This
will require
them to create
the rap and
they can use
the Pinterest
Boards to help
them better
find tunes to
play the rap
too.

Students will be
the main bosses of
this. They will get
together and
create the rap and
the investigations
and then come
together to really
understand how
everything comes
together in the
end. They can
continue to use
the LMS as a
sounding board
and really allow
the other students
to see the ideas
and gain insights if
they are the
opposing side.

The major game of this will be the Rap

off. It will allow the students to grow and
show what they have learned. The
Students will create games or polls on the
LMS to spark the classmates interests
and then some how create a way that will
allow the students to show everything
they have learned and how it will be
effective for you.

Students will
come to class
ready to go.
They will begin
by doing all
the previous
steps at home
and posting
what they
have found on
their LMS for
the classmates
to see.
However those
will only
become visible
once they
come to class
and narrow
down ideas
and really
collaborate
with each
other.

Once the students decide on the activity

they will do the activity in class. The
teacher will find a way to make it more
interactive and include ideas from the
LMS and the Pinterest boards that they
got the ideas from. This is the hands on
time that will allow the students to finally
get a deeper understanding of physical
science.

Students will
be at home
doing a lot of
the
investigation
and answering
the polling
questions.
They will come
to school
ready to learn
and grow in
their
knowledge of
physical
science.

Teachers will
use both of
the
technology
systems to
help decide
which works
best for
students. If
someone
with dyslexia
works better
with finding
Pinterest
boards that is
what they
will use and if
that does not
work the
teacher will
do whatever
they can so

Students will
communicate
the best ways
to show what
they are
learning
about. They
will grow in
their ability to
understand
and they will
show the
teacher by
learning the
most effective
way to
understand
things.

Applying

Students will
use applying
because they
will apply what
they have
learned to see
if it works for
their learning
style. This will
be a good way
for the teacher
to understand
what works and
what does not
and how that
will help or hurt
the situation.

Students will run

this activity once
they know what
works best for
them. It will be
good for them to
teach the teacher
of what type of
learning system is
best and how they
can take this or
that way to help
them become
better learners.

Students grow deeper in their

understanding of what it all means by
playing games that the rest of the class is
playing. Whether it is the LMS memory or
the Pinterest Search and Find, either way,
the students will do what they can to
understand what is going on but also
make sure they ask questions and really
get the clarification they need.

The flipped
classroom
might be the
hardest for the
students to do,
but if they are
able to
communicate
with the
teacher online
and really
grow in that, I
think that it
will benefit the
student to the
best of their
ability and
really allow
them to
understand
and grow in
those.

Reflection: This matrix was a little harder. It was hard because I felt like all I was saying was, Go post this on the LMS, or Create
Pinterest board. Overall I think that it has its benefits and that in time it may be easier to understand how things are going and
really see that it is not just about creating and posting things. However, we did not learn that growing up and its all so new that I
think that it is still a challenge to see the benefits of all of this coming into play.
