This Quick and Easy Free Web App is Great for Creating Flipped and Blended Learning Materials

In the current Online Flipped Classroom Workshop that we're just wrapping up, one of the participants recommended Blendspace, so I gave it a look. Wow! Here's yet another powerful tool that lets teachers bring together different types of content into a focused, purposeful set of learning materials with ease.

Blendspace create lessons in minutes

In a few minutes, you can search out (or directly paste in the URLs for) YouTube videos, web pages, files of your own, and lots of different web media, and create a “Blendspace” like the one below. These can be shared via a link on social media, or embedded as I've done below (the size can be adjusted – this is smaller than I'd prefer, but I had to work within the limits of the site layout).

This example has just 5 resources in it, but you can add many more to yours. It is also easier to view on the Blendspace web site: click here to access it in full screen mode, or click on the “Open in Blendspace” link in the upper right hand corner. Click on the circular icons on the upper right hand corner of each resource tile to open that resource within the Blendspace window.

The possibilities for today's teachers to mash up digital content into their own customized learning resource sets just keep improving. What an amazing time to teach!
