With this feature enabled everything behind you is heavily blurred when you're recording a video in Flipgrid. A related feature is the option to use virtual backgrounds in Flipgrid. The virtual background can be an image that you choose from Flipgrid's built-in image library or it can be an image that you upload from your computer.  In this short video I demonstrate how to blur backgrounds in Flipgrid videos.    Applications for Education Blurring the background is a good way for students to protect the privacy of themselves and others when recording a video at home or in any other place away from your classroom.     • Email to a friend • More Recent Articles Chrome, Canva, and Code - The Month in Review The Science of Fireworks Best of 2021 - See What's Behind Bitly and TinyURL Without Clicking Best of 2021 - Ziplet Exit Tickets Best of 2021 - The Science of Cake!
