Flipgrid and E-Book
Welcome back little frogs,
Thank you for coming back to my blog. This week I am discussing Flipgrid which is a technological tool that provides an accessible discussion platform with teachers from all levels of education. This week I retrieved my information from Jenna Abbott who is an author in our E-book. The link to the E-book is below if you would like to learn about other instructional technology tools in HRD.
Flipgrid is a resource that can be used from both an instructional standpoint and a participant standpoint. Teachers can create a "grid" which from my understanding is similar to google classroom. In this grid they can present a prompt or question for other teachers to reply and discuss via video. However, only those with a trainer/teacher provided class link and code will have access to their Flipgrid community, topics, prompts, and peer responses. Teachers must then create their account using there school Google or Microsoft logins. However, participants and students do not require an account but they cannot join the discussion but can view it. Once you are logged in to Flipgrid you can read through the prompts and record your response. This resource allows small discussions to gain large perspectives. This is not only beneficial for teachers but ultimately benefits the students allowing teachers to work so cohesively.
Personally I tried signing up for Flipgrid but I am not currently a teacher or instructor so I couldn't make an account. However, I plan on joining the teaching field next year and this will certainly be one of my top resources. I am a strong believer in the saying "teamwork makes the dream work" and Flipgrid provides just that.
