Flipgrid or Recap: Which Should I Use?
This year I have tried two great, and similar tools, for asking students to make quick videos of themselves and submit them for viewing. Last month I blogged about using Flipgrid to record students as they demonstrate a chemical experiment and then explain it using a gas law. You can watch a sample here. Earlier this year I used Recap to record the members of the Speech and Debate Team as they read something of their choosing so I could get to know them better at the beginning of our season. You can see what a Recap video looks like here.
Both tools were great - easy to use and provided valuable information about my students. So which one would I recommend? That's an impossible choice because they offer different features. In fact, so many different features are offered that the only way I can keep it all straight is by creating a data table. Here it is:
Hopefully this chart will help you determine which one better meets your needs. No matter what you're looking for, I hope you'll try Recap or Flipgrid out before this school year ends!
This is exactly what I was looking for! Great job comparing features, and thanks so much sharing this out.
ReplyDeleteJust what I was looking for. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks for table
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Very timely review.
ReplyDeleteAnswered my question. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteCan I give audio feedback back to the students on either one? I am a spanish teacher and I want my students to respond to an audio prompt and then I want to be able to ask a follow up question that they listen and respond to.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! I used Recap a couple of times last school year after our tech integration coach gave a short presentation on it. Just yesterday she gave a presentation on Flipgrid. I was curious how the two compared.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! There have been a few changes; have you considered an update of your chart?
ReplyDeleteThis is great!
