Add a Topic in Flip

FYI: Flip was formerly known as Flipgrid.

Topics in Flip can be thought of as threads (similar to discussion boards) or individual assignments. It's advisable to organize your topics based on your course objectives or individual concepts. For example, you might have one Flip topic (thread) for students to get to know each other at the start of the term. You might have another topic (thread) for students to reflect on the information in your most recent lecture or reading assignment.
