Flipgrid Video for
Student Engagement and
Formative Assessment
Flipgrid is one of our new favorite assessment tools! We are not alone; the edtech world is crazy for this free teacher tool. More than 100,000 educators, 5,000,000 students use Flipgrid across 141 countries.
Flipgrid popularity might come from the user familiarity close to the Snapchat App. It is an online video discussion tool where you add the topics and your students respond to those topics (and to each other) with short videos. I love it because you can assess and build a classroom community.
