     A flipped classroom is a classroom that has students work as interactive learners rather than just listeners. It blends online classrooms with real classrooms, using videos. Basically, it works a lot like a college classroom. Students learn the information before hand, typically from a video, and then go to class with the knowledge they learned and their teachers help them enforce this knew information with class work. A teacher is more of a helper than a teacher. A good source would be YouTube.com, because a lot of teachers already use it, it's free and easy to access, and a lot of students (myself included) already use it when they do not understand information. It would make it easy for students to watch their teachers videos, and then if they still do not understand they can watch more videos that may help them.

     Open education is a way to allow everyone to use education. It allows anyone, enrolled in a school or not, to have access to education, no matter what it is (lectures, videos, syllabus). While formal education is considered good, but not everyone has access to this information. Of course people are not getting degrees with this knowledge, but they can help with tutoring, improve skills, and increase knowledge. http://pgcc.libguides.com/oer

     Open content is basically copyrighted work that anyone can use, for free, in respect to the 5 Rs (retain, reuse, revise, remix, and redistribute). It's used primarily in education. It is used closely with open education, making information more readily available for anyone to use no matter what their access is. It can help teachers save time and money, as well as others who cannot go to a formal classroom. https://www.opencontent.org/definition/

     Open source is software that is open to use, primarily by everyone. Typically free, but not always. It can be used to supplement learning. It allows people to participate and to create, with the use of the software. It can be used for schools, business, or anyone trying to learn. https://opensource.com/

     I loved the powerpoint assignments. I thought it was a lot of fun, even though I do feel like I knew a lot already. I learned how to link slides and turn off linear navigation, which I think is really cool for when I am teaching in the future. I loved every aspect of the assignments, there was nothing I didn't like other then the speaker notes because you cant see them when the slide is going.
