Flipgrid - Empowering everyone's voice is an artificial intelligence (AI) technology in foreign language teaching. Flipgrid (https://flipgrid.com/) is a free online communication application developed by Charles Miller from University of Minnesota - USA in 2015. Since 2018, Microsoft Multinational Technology Corporation has acquired Flipgrid to attract educators and learners all around the world. This is an easy, practical and free video discussion platform that allows users to record short videos to answer questions using their own device (such as smartphones or tablets). Teachers can create "grids" (topics) and students can upload videos presented as grids. In addition, topics can be presented in the form of text, images or videos. Teachers can create an endless number of topics, and each grid can hold a large number of response videos. These topics can then be shared with groups or classes; furthermore, students can create short videos in response to their classmates' videos. In terms of Flipgrid's benefits to teachers, this platform allows them to create "grids" (topics) to monitor their students' practice in class work, give feedback, keep track of students' speaking progress at ease. This tool has grown rapidly in K-12 and higher education, with its leaders claiming that it has 20 million current users (educators and learners) and has been applied in over 50,000 schools in 180 countries. Overall, the necessity of employing new technology has opened up greater opportunities for students and educators to increase their interest in English learning and teaching in the New Normal.
