Who is the audience for my capstone? Since my capstone project is about the ins and outs of an in-class flipped classroom, my audience will likely be classroom teachers who are interested in experimenting with using screencasts or videos for in-class instruction. This may be elementary school teachers whose students are too young for ongoing flipped learning; this may be high school teachers whose students don’t have access to the technology at home that they’d need for a “traditional” flip; this could be teachers who aren't planning to flip, but who are interested in using videos as in-class reference for students.
What content do I think they’ll need? My audience will need information about why to try an in-class flip, what they’ll need to try an in-class flip, and what worked and what didn’t. One of the most important elements would be a list of tips and tricks for a successful in-class flip. Some tips are structural, some tips are tactical. Several that come to mind are:

It is clear that your action research and the lessons you learned from your Educreations project have helped you create tips for other teachers. It is definitely true that we often learn more from our "failures". I agree that teachers often need a quick list of time saving tricks in order for them to want to take a risk and try a new program or strategy. Your practical "Try This, Not That" is something I am striving to present as well in my project.

"Charge and test devices before each class"! Love it! How often do these little, practical tips escape us? Have you considered a downloadable practical/tactical checklist, for teachers to use as a resource?
