There are so many ways to publish online it is hard to decide what is best for your students. It will take some time to decide as you can do each of the aspects f the publishing. You can then decide what tools are best for your students. Flipped Classroom The flipped classroom I have discussed previously and really enjoy the idea of it. I have watched videos on the flipped classroom and they are awesome. It is engaging and fun. As a teacher it is fun as well as you get to create a video about what needs to be taught. The next day the students know what they need to do and they can do it. There is not a long period of time teaching and reteaching aspects that need to be taught. The teaching is done and now it is time to facilitate. This video is one of many of a teacher using the flip classroom and how successful it can be with the students. I really enjoyed this way of teaching and how it can benefit students.
Weebly Weebly has been a great tool for me during school but as well as in my classroom and at home. I have a small business that I was able to make a website for using weebly and it has taken my business to a new level. By publishing topics or aspects online it can deepen the learning of your students as well as engage them more in their own work. It is fun to make your own website and have it be the way you want. It is your creation and no one elses. You own it. It helps to bring out the aspects of learning that will take these students further. Digital Storytelling This is an aspect that I am not quite understanding as of yet. I am still learning more about it and how it will benefit my classroom. It seems as though it will use all aspects of technology and learning for the students. They will learn how to be creative and edit and really just make it their own while still learning writing and reading. This is an aspect of 21st century learner that is hitting the nail on the head. We want to focus on literacy and this is just that.

I agree with you about liking the flipped classroom approach! I too think its great way to change the "traditional" instructional method, and it allows the students to learn on their own and then ask questions about their understandings at school. I think there are many pros and benefits from having a flipped classroom, but I also think there are many things to consider.

thanks for the post, I am a fan of the flipped classroom as well. It benefits my learning style being able to access information outside of the lecture hall. I think we will see in the coming years more research on the effectiveness of this in the classroom.
