Abstract

This Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) project which targets three of ISTE’s Standards for Educators (2017) engaged 63 American preservice teachers and 39 Israeli in-service teachers in asynchronous dialogue in the cloud via Flipgrid. We used data generated by Flipgrid and end-of-semester survey data to answer three research questions. In this paper, we describe respondents’ level of participation, the benefits and challenges they described, and their willingness to use Flipgrid in the future. Findings have implications for K-20 teachers and educators across content areas.
