Analyze the middle school scenario, Flipped Math Class. Explain your process for coding and categorizing the qualitative data. What patterns and/or themes did you discover?

What steps does your team need to take to address these issues before implementing the innovation of a flipped classroom?

Pages 138-139 in Action Research: A Guide for the Teacher Researcher provide an example of coding from a transcript.

Guided Response: Consider the analysis and interpretation of at least two of your classmates. Did you find similar themes or patterns? Examine their interpretation of the data.
