FLIPGRID

WHAT IS FLIPGRID?

Flipgrid is a website that allows teachers to create «grids» to facilitate video discussions. Each grid is like a message board where teachers can pose questions, called «topics,» and their students can post video responses that appear in a tiled grid display.

SOME OF THE ADVANTAGES OF USING FLIPGRID ARE:

Presented in a visually appealing, organized grid.
Quick, yet empressive formative assessment.
Easy to navigate.
Easy to sign up.
Simple to embed Grids or topics on any website.
Great for parent involvement and communication.
Works for any and every subject!
Gives shy students a voice!
Students can access Flipgrid from anywhere through any device with internet connection.
Styled to embody popular social media sites, which appeals to students.
Students will beg to make Flipgrids! It is a great tool to use for homework.
Build a classroom community

DISADVANTAGES

Students can only reply in a comment section if the teacher has the upgraded version. (Tip: Have students create another video response labeled ‘reply to (student’s name).’
Teachers can grade using embedded rubrics, but they are very basic. Teachers must upgrade if they want detailed rubrics.
my students. In retrospect, I should have created another account, using my college email account for this project.
Students could play around using the technology and possibly waste class time, if the teacher does not pay close attention.
