Nearpod is a student engagement online platform with interactive K-12 lessons that merges formative assessment and dynamic media for collaborative learning experiences. A teacher may create presentations that contain Quizzes, Polls, Videos, Images, Drawing-Boards, Web Content, and more. Then, assign student-paced, front of class, or live participation lessons anytime, anywhere.
This webinar includes how to access your account, hands-on experience with a teacher-paced lesson to see the different components of Nearpod, how to search the lesson library, share with students, view results, and strategies to use Nearpod.
Nearpod can help teachers engage students and get instant insights into learning.
