Using Asynchronous Video-Based Discussions in Online Learning: An Investigation of Students' Perceptions of Flipgrid

• In Event: Promoting Meaningful Social Interaction in Online Learning

Abstract

Asynchronous video-based discussions have affordances that can address some of the constraints of asynchronous text-based discussions. However, very little research has been conducted on the use of asynchronous video-based discussions in online courses. As a result, the purpose of this study was to investigate students’ perceptions of using FlipGrid for asynchronous video-based discussions in fully online courses. In this session, we will report the results of our inquiry and implications for research and practice.
