STEP 1: Create a Flip Account | |
In order for the integration to work, you must have an active Flip account. | |
1. Go to info.flip.com and click the Sign Up button. Choose Continue with Google. Use your @k12.hi.us account to create an account. Note: If you do not have an @k12.hi.us Department email, use the email you are using in Canvas. | |
Complete the process to sign in to your Google account. | |
You may need to enter your DOB and country/region. Once you are signed in to Flip, you can either open a new browser tab or close the window. |
STEP 2: Create Your Canvas Assignment | |
You must create a new assignment for the integration to work. Important: The integration won't work if you simply change the settings for an existing assignment. | |
Access Canvas and the course where you want to add the assignment. Click on Modules | |
Click the + button to add an Assignment to your Module. | |
Add an Assignment Click [Create Assignment] Enter information into the "Assignment Name" field Click Add Item | |
Once the assignment is created, click the assignment title link. | |
Click Edit Add additional assignment settings:
| |
Under “Submission Type", click the dropdown and select External Tool. | |
Under “Enter or find an External Tool URL”, click Find. | |
Scroll down to select “Flip.” This will integrate Flip with the assignment. Click Select. | |
For the “Load this Tool In A New Tab”:
| |
At the bottom, click Save & Publish. | |
If you chose "Load this Tool In a New Tab" click "Load [Assignment name] in a new window" button. | |
If this is your first time accessing Flip from the course, you will be prompted to 'Create a course group'. This will connect your Canvas course to Flip. Your course title will appear under the Groups area. | |
Once you have a course group, each assignment that you connect will automatically create a Flip topic. | |
