Using LinkedIn Learning in the Classroom
There are two, possibly three options to use the LinkedIn Learning Platform with your students. Whatever option you choose, make sure that you incorporate active learning strategies as you never want students to just sit and watch videos one after the other without engaging in some kind of learning by doing activity.
Flipped Classroom – In this case, you have the students watch the videos on their own time, and you use the class time to do hands-on workshops, quizzes and other forms of instruction that apply what is learned from the video content.
Blended Learning Classroom – This would be a combination of both direct face to face instruction while using online materials or instruction. The videos are short, ranging from 2 to 5 minutes. In the blended mode you could have the student watch a few at a time and provide a small demonstration or activity that supports and assesses what they have learned.
Self-Paced Supplementary Resource – Provide the resource to students to learn during their own time.
