Have you tried Flipgrid yet? If not, this is the year to join the fun! This cool and totally FREE site lets students record video responses to teacher prompts. There are endless ways to use it in every classroom, virtual or in person, K-12. Read on to learn how it works and get Flipgrid ideas for every subject.

How Does Flipgrid Work?

The basic process is simple. Teachers set up a free account, then post topics for students to respond to. Students receive a "Join" code (or you can easily post these to Google Classroom), review the assignment, and respond by recording a video using their phone or webcam. Teachers control the privacy settings, so it's a safe way for students to interact online.

There are a bunch of customization options, and teachers have the ability to control how students interact with each other. You can choose to disable "likes" or moderate videos and comments before they're posted. Video responses can vary from 15 seconds to 10 minutes, so kids can respond off-the-cuff to a quick question or spend time to plan and record a quality video.

Flipgrid's site provides lots of help and ideas, including pre-made topics to get you started instantly. And it really is completely free! Teachers love the interactivity it provides, especially in virtual classrooms where students don't always have a chance to show off their personality. Here are 50+ ways to give it a try.

Should I record with the desktop app or Chrome extension?
within your browsers, you can record with the Loom Chrome extension. If you'd like some added features, such as HD recording and drawing tools, swap to the Loom desktop app.pricing page.

👉

How to share your videos

Simply copy and paste the video URL link into an email or another platform you use to communicate, like Google Classroom. Think of it as sharing the link of a news article or a YouTube video. You can paste the link anywhere and anyone can click the link to watch it, as sign-up is not required to view.

👉 If a recipient claims they need permission to view your video, you may have accidentally added a privacy setting to your video. For a full list of sharing options click here.

How to record a presentation

You can record presentations with Loom using the Chrome extension or the desktop app. However, the Chrome extension will not populate the camera bubble, so if you're recording a Keynote or PowerPoint presentation you'll want to use the Loom desktop app.

👉 This article will show you how to record your presentation with both applications.

How to use the drawing tool
The drawing tool is a great way to provide feedback and make quick markings on your screen as you narrate. Please note that markings will disappear after a few seconds. This is the intended behavior to keep your screen clear and clutter-free.

👉 This article will show you how to use the drawing tool. This is only available on the desktop app.

🎓 FAQ
Can I meet with colleagues or students in a real-time video session?
No, Loom is an asynchronous communication tool. With Loom, you can record your camera, microphone, and desktop simultaneously. However, the ability to conference call and conduct live video sessions with multiple people is not possible with Loom. If you'd like to meet in real-time we suggest using Zoom, Google Hangouts or Skype.
How can I flip my camera so I can read the text in my video instead of a mirror image?
For the desktop app: Open the recording menu, click on the three little dots in the upper corner, click on preferences, toggle on or off the 'flip camera' option for your desired effect.

For the Chrome extension: Open the recording menu, click on 'show advanced options' check or uncheck the flip camera box option for your desired effect.
