Teachers use Flipgrid in various ways for students to share their own videos, and in the past year with the pandemic, it was used more widely. Fortunately, it’s an easy-to-use program for both teachers and students. To create a video, students can record themselves, or they can record their screens
  • Customizable
  • Clear for students to crate videos
  • Allows students to share work with each other
  • Would like to require word count for comments
I use Flipgrid to allow students to share their work with each other. For example, my students created some artwork based on a prompt. Then, they used Flipgrid to record their work and explain their choices. I also required them to comment on each other’s work to make sure they watched the videos.

  • Lets students see each other’s work
  • Allows for peer feedback
  • Gives students ownership of work
Flipgrid is unique in its ability to allow students to create and share their own videos. I’m sure there are other ways to do this, but this is the first program that I’ve seen with these features. Students aren’t necessarily used to sharing academic videos of themselves, so it’s good practice!

Flipgrid is used widely throughout the department of the "School of Languages" in our university. We have been using it to enhance the learning of different languages through easy and funny video interactions that students really engage in. Flipgrid is a platform that allows you to open video forums where students have short instructions of a "Topic" that they will discuss. To enter this forum they use the topic's code which leads them to the recording page where they will leave a video stating their opinion. After that, they are able to see their partner's opinions (if you allow them) and leave comments, record a video replying back, and even mark them as a favorite, Students are also able to see how many views their video has and receive a notification every time some likes it or add it as a favorite, which motivates them to give their best. A disadvantage it may have is that students with a slow connection to the internet could have difficulties uploading the video, but other than that it works wonders. Filpgrid has contributed to making speaking activities easy to manage and fun for students and teachers.
  • Engage students in Speaking activities
  • Provides a wide variety of methods to share the activity (Google Classroom, Teams, etc)
  • Design of activities is made easier, because you are able to add images, videos, documents, etc.
  • Adding the emojis at the end is something that is unnecessary and makes the page freeze.
  • The internet usage should be adapted, for example if students have a slow connection adapting the quality of the videos would be ideal so everyone can watch doesn't matter the speed.
  • As a teacher, I'd like to be able to grade this videos in the platform to get a full report.
I'd greatly recommend it to any teacher. It can be used in a variety of scenarios but mainly for speaking activities. It can work for example as an oral exam or oral evaluation, this I make them hiding it from other students' views. I also use it to analyze and comment about videos and readings. When students start talking and liking it, it's a killer. They start asking when is the next forum going to happen. However, something I do not recommend it for is role plays or collective readings, which I have tried and it fails miserably. This is because of timing, students upload the video at different moments and it is a hot mess. However, I am fine with the first part because it works pretty well.

  • It has helped teachers to counter the E-learning limitations for speaking activities.
  • It has given APEC a signature of being creative among the users which has increased the number of students.
  • It has organized the activities teachers use.
From an academic point of view, I thought using Flipgrid to record videos and add their voices to them, or even analyzing and sharing about videos or lectures would be effective. Sadly, I discover this product to be more suited for explanatory presentations and introductions rather than communicative activities. It does not offer the same fan of opportunities and variety, let alone the level of interaction Flipgrid possesses.

I use Flipgrid with my students in responding to prompts and assignments. It allows students in our classrooms to be able to respond to us without having to speak in front of a room full of their peers. It gives them the opportunity to record their response in a private setting and having the ability to express themselves with fear of failure in front of others.
  • Ease of use for students.
  • Teacher support and community encouraged by the company.
  • Students can get carried away with stickers and filters with their recordings.
  • Issues arise if students have to use older devices.
Flipgrid is well suited for all types of classrooms. Flipgrid is free for teachers to create accounts and use them with their students. It is a great option to use with all students or to utilize with students who do not feel comfortable sharing their answers in front of a class. It also provides a differentiated way for students to complete projects and assignments.

  • Flipgrid provides our students with a sense of accomplishment with their videos.
  • Students enjoy creating their own product.
Flipgrid gives students the ability to create their own products. Nearpod provides teachers with the platform to send lessons and information out to students, where Flipgrid is the way for students to respond to questions and prompts by their teachers. It allows them to create their video and their response. It does not have to be a slide show with snippets added in.
Flipgrip is great for supporting educators. They provide opportunities for teachers to learn the program and become ambassadors for the program. They are also responsive to questions and concerns through many different modes. That includes online communities, email, and Facebook communities. They are eager to meet and troubleshoot with you and are also eager to meet educators at conferences and meetings.

We have several staff members that used Flipgrid in prior schools. The recommendations and positive feedback help to encourage staff members who were unfamiliar to feel comfortable to try and implement it.
We would not change any part of our evaluation and selection process.
This product is straightforward to implement and share across our building and district. As a large district, it was not difficult to train staff and have them feel at ease implementing the program.
We have never had issues with the Flipgrid platform being unavailable during the school day.
Flipgrid has been easy for both our students and staff to use. When there is an issue with the program, we can easily reach support, and the trouble is resolved in an extremely quick and timely manner.

Currently, our school is using Flipgrid across and within grade levels for various topics and projects. We recently used it to build a school community within our staff by completing a #Fliphunt to introduce incoming teachers to vitals points and people around the school. To begin the school year, students have also participated in a Meet & Greet #Fliphunt to build relationships in their classroom.
  • Flipgrid does an excellent job of amplifying student voice by giving students a voice in a variety of ways, using their mouth, drawing their responses, and demonstrating their learning on their Flipgrid board.
  • Flipgrid allows teachers to share their best practices and lessons by uploading ideas into the Disco Library located on the Flipgrid platform.
  • Flipgrid allows students to build community and connect with others by following and participating in #FlipgridFever on Twitter and Instagram.
  • At this time, Flipgrid is doing things right by listening to its users, teachers, and students.
Flipgrid is well suited in EVERY aspect of learning and teaching. It's even welcomed at parties, gatherings, and team buildings. At this time, my youngest daughter uses it for her personal journal which allows her to speak, sing, draw, and act out her thoughts. I have yet to find a non-use of Flipgrid.

  • The positive impact Flipgrid has had on my students is amazing! Students who would otherwise get lost in the crowd, have their voices heard. Students who are typically quiet, have a stage all their own and they shine. A student of mine who was mute in class broke out of his shell and used Flipgrid to share jokes.
Flipgrid is the most user-friendly platform that exists.
Those who created Flipgrid and continue to work there, support teachers and students tirelessly and graciously.

One of the hottest applications out in education right now. Teachers throughout my district are using Flipgrid in their classrooms to spark student voice. This gives students a platform that they are familiar with, similar to social media applications such as Facebook live, and Snapchat, in which they can record themselves doing something. Our World Language teachers and English teachers have really taken to Flipgrid as a way for students to show their learning on a topic. ESL students enjoy this as well, as they can record themselves reading a segment from a text and share with the teacher for feedback. I have also used Flipgrid to deliver engaging professional development opportunities or as a way for teachers to share their own learning.

  • Enhances student voice and gives them a platform to share their voice with others. Helps bring attention to the quiet students or those hesitant to share or ask questions.
  • Easy navigation and simple for teachers to create assignments, embed materials, link to Google apps, etc.
  • Teachers can keep track of al student video submissions right from within Flipgrid. Not need to manage it anywhere else!
  • Offers ways for students who might be hesitant to show their face, ways to hide it with clip art, etc.
  • This is small, but I've had a difficult time grabbing the embed code from Flipgrid and embedding it into a Google Site or LMS. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Maybe there can be LTI integration with LMS platforms?
This is one of those apps that can be applied to any grade level and any subject matter. I have also had great success using Flipgrid for staff and teacher professional development. Flipgrid can be used 1) as a way to practice interview style questions 2) as a way to practice IB curriculum 3) as a way to learn about students at the beginning of a year 4) as a way for staff to collaborate during a book discussion.

  • We have had great improvement with our ESL students who need to practice speaking allowed. Flipgrid has given them a platform to record themselves and afford the teacher a place to watch the videos and leave comments/feedback.
  • English teachers can verify whether students have read and truly understand a text.
  • The platform has afforded us a mobile platform for students to record themselves as opposed to building or having a physical space for recording.
Flipgrid is a game changer, working in a similar fashion to these other applications, but offering much more in terms of teacher control and implementation inside the classroom. Teachers can create lesson plans that incorporate options for Flipgrid to be utilized as a formative assessment tool to better gauge student comprehension and understanding.
