Jonathan Bergmann

Jon (Jonathan) Bergmann is a chemistry and physics teacher and one of the developers of the "flipped classroom" model of teaching along with fellow chemistry teacher Aaron Sams. Although already noted for his teaching, Bergmann decided to "flip" what students did in his classes, watching video lectures at home and doing exercises (homework) in class under supervision. He and Sams not only found that grades went up, they also found time for other types of activities, which Bergmann states is more important than the videos. Bergmann has since become the lead technology facilitator for a school in Illinois and has worked to promote the models speaking at schools, universities, and more both in the United States and abroad. He currently teaches science at a private high school in the suburbs on the West side of Houston, Texas. Provided by Wikipedia
