Flipgrid

 Hello, hope you are doing fine. I am gonna be talking about flipgrid today.

Flipgrid is a platform that helps teachers see and hear from every student in a more entertaining environment just like zoom and google meet(?).

That's what its interface looks like as you can see. In my opinion it looks more well-designed when compared to zoom and google meet. Furthermore, its introvert-friendly features such as the addition of emojis, texts, stickers etc. Such features lower some students' affective filters, making them more motivated to participate in the class without pressure. 

You can also make use of more social media-like features like shorts or custom stickers. This contributes to its creativity in a learning environment despite having drawbacks such as students being distracted by those, but it can be managed by an experienced teacher in my opinion.

It also has some advantages as listed below:

-The ability to add rich media (text, sticker, emoji)

-Less pressure on students

-Free 

-Re-recording answers

To sum up, I think it is worth using it at least once to experience an enriched platform in remote learning.
