Create a Flipgrid Activity

Flipgrid has been fully integrated into MATHiaFlex, eliminating the need to go outside of MATHiaFlex to create or answer topics. When a teacher creates a class in MATHiaFlex, a grid is automatically created in a Flipgrid account tied to MATHiaFlex. Students automatically have a Flipgrid account created when they are registered in MATHiaFlex.

In MATHiaFlex, teachers first create a Flipgrid Activity and then assign it to a class or classes. This allows the Flipgrid Activity to appear in student To-Do lists and on their Assignments page with a clear due date. Their teacher will receive the video submission on the Class Dashboard to evaluate it, and students can track scores and feedback for their evaluated assignments in MATHiaFlex. When a Flipgrid activity is created and assigned, a topic is automatically created in the corresponding grid for the classes it is assigned to.

Teachers then have access to their entire Flipgrid for all classes on their Resources page and are able to edit options for each topic.

Creating a Flipgrid Activity allows it to be saved for future use and tagged to the program, level or grade, and unit it is associated with. You may also share your activities with other teachers in your school or district to allow more collaboration.

CREATE A FLIPGRID ACTIVITY 

 

You may create a Flipgrid Activity from the Content Library, or from your Assign Cart if you have already started collecting activities to assign to a class. Some programs have pre-created Flipgrid activities that you can search for and assign.

  1. From the Content Library click on the drop-down menu in Create Content and choose Activity to begin creating a Flipgrid activity. 
  2. You may also create a Flipgrid activity from your Assign Cart by clicking Create. 
  3.  Both actions bring up the Activity creation window. Click Flipgrid and fill out the activity details with a Title, Level, and Score Possible. You may also choose to share the activity with other teachers using the Share With drop-down menu. In the Activity Question text box, type the instructions, and prompt for the students. 
  4. You may choose to click Create to simply create and save the Flipgrid Activity to the Assignment Library, or you may click Create & Add+ to add it to your Assign Cart and assign the Flipgrid Activity immediately to your students.
