If you haven't been at least attempting to create online material to share with your students yet, you probably need to start. As education attempts to catch up with the rest of the world as far as technology is concerned, teachers need to arm themselves with 21st century tools.
The concept of flipped learning is one I feel very strongly about. Creating screencasts of lessons and mini-tutorials and making them available on your classroom site or blog on a 24/7 basis is vital in today's classroom. Your student was snoozing or absent during your lesson? No problem. They can access your site and check out the lesson. With Screencast-o-matic, you get a free online application that will record your voice and every mouse movement you make on the screen. Record Powerpoints, Prezis, and so much more with the click of a mouse! The best part? No download or install necessary because it is entirely web-based and creates the file online!
