ETE Conf 2022 | Reimagining 3 Modes of Communication with Flip
Channel: Empower Teaching
Date: 11/08/2022

Presented by, 
Sarah Gordon

Pivoting to online and hybrid modes of teaching forced us all to reimagine our approaches. Along with the challenges of remote teaching, powerful technologies such as Flipgrid offered many affordances for developing learner communication skills. This presentation begins with a brief overview of several other existing video discussions/social learning platforms and the pedagogical framework behind them, then focuses on Flipgrid. The second part shows examples of innovative, engaging activities that can be useful in many disciplines in teaching 3 modes of communication: interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational. To synthesize, we offer specific suggestions for best practices using Flipgrid (and Canvas integration) to engage students and provide an inclusive platform on which all voices may be heard. Finally, a literature review with annotated resource list on the SoTL related to Flipgrid is provided.

*Participants will learn best practices and practical activities for developing interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational communication skills using the Flipgrid platform across disciplines.
