Creating Topics

This article guides instructors through setting up topics in a group.

Create a Topic

Refer to the Boise State best practices listed below as you follow Flip’s steps to create a topic. If you make a mistake, you can always go back and edit your topic.

If you already have a topic set up, duplicate topics to save time. You can edit the details afterward!
Enter descriptive, unique topic titles that correspond to your course syllabus and schedule or Canvas course site (e.g., Week 3 Astronomical Observations).
Before entering a topic description in Flip, consider how you want students to access Flip then build out the description in the best tool, Flip or Canvas. Either can work, just be consistent!
- Do you plan to use the Flip LTI in Canvas?
- Will you place share links, join codes, or a QR code within each week’s module on a Canvas page or once at the beginning of the course?
