Creativity and Flipping classroom

Ken Robinson talks about creativity.  One thing that i have liked a lot is that schools focuse  on our heads and ignore other skills that could student have such as dancing, art...
It is important to be open to different types of intelligence and personalize learning according to each student.


 
Salman Khan who created Khan Acadmey, provides online educational video series talked about the experience of flipping the classroom. As the word flip means it allows us to watch video lectures at home and do the homework in class. This is important for every teacher because  nowadays all the materials are found online, the teacher's role have changed to become the facilitator, the guide and the helper.
