Nearpod allows you to synchronize lessons across all student devices with real-time feedback and post-session reports on student comprehension.

What is Nearpod?

• Create or download interactive multimedia presentations
• Share your interactive lesson and control the students' activity in real time
• Your students interact and submit responses through their laptop or mobile device
• Monitor and measure results on an individual and aggregate basis

So how does it work?

Prior to the lecture, the teacher uploads or creates a lesson and adds it to their library

When the teacher launches a session, the students are given a 5 letter pin

As students enter the pin into their laptop or cell phone...

Their names appears on the teacher's student list.

The TEACHER is now in complete control

As the teacher goes through the lesson...

Embedded in the presentation, are student activities in which the student is prompted to complete a task

Instead of sitting here, wouldn't you rather be somewhere on vacation?

Where would you like to go?

As the students complete each task and submit it, their responses are immediately available for the teacher to view
