Flipped Learning Network

Flipped Learning Network is "a professional learning community for teachers using screencasting in education." 





 
According to the introduction to this site on the main page, "the not-for-profit Flipped Learning Network™ is the source of information for emerging and established educators at all grade levels and subjects who are employing the flip in a single unit, an individual class, an entire department, or the whole school."

This social networking site provides simple but useful sections consisting of Forums, Groups, and Videos. First, in the Forums section many people join discussions whose topics are Learning Management Systems, Storing Videos and Online Assessment, Making and Producing Vodcasts, and others. Next, in the Groups section the members of this site can join a wide range of featured groups including First Time Flippers, Middle School,Moodle, etc. Last, in the Videos section, informative and diverse videos related to education and classrooms are uploaded. As for the featured videos,What NOT to do Screencast and Preparing Students for a Flipped Classroom are the most-watched videos with more than 2000 views.
 
Given this, the members of this social networking site seem to lively and passionately participate in the forums and discussions, and deliver video messages. So, I think I can share good information and much knowledge with them.
