Nearpod - Get closer to your audience

Nearpod is a cloud based interactive tool that allows real time interactions with the audience like between teacher and students in a classroom. It can be used to create engaging presntations,polls, quizzes, open end questions, collaborative boards, drawing activities, worksheets etc. It is particularly convinient for teachers as it has a library of pre-made lesson plans on various topics. It makes the classroom instantly active and alive with increased focus and student engagement. It is easy to implement on devices like laptops, smartphone, tablets etc. In my classroom I have used it mostly with i-pads, probably twice a month but it can used more frequently specially for younger age groups. I have it integrated with google classroom, which makes it very quick and easy to share the content with students. The accessibility to students is far greater as would have been otherwise. One can also choose options like self paced learning or live participation depending on teaching style. It also helps teachers to track real time progress of students and provide feedback. The software can otherwise be used in meetings, seminars etc, to interact with a larger group of audience, collect data and instant polls. I haven't tried VR experiences but it is possible to virtually visit museums, mars surface using nearpod. In this digital era of learning, it is a very useful classroom tool.

Star is amazing!

I love how after a student takes a simple test, that teachers can immediatelly see what reading level (or math) is best suited for their continued growth.
