Transform Learning with Nearpod

Nearpod brings a new dimension to the learning experience for students and educators. Since first using Nearpod in the classroom in 2012, Nearpod has been my #1 tech tool for collaboration and instruction. Though my positions in education have changed from classroom teacher to administrator to my now current role as program developer, Nearpod has been the tool that I feel has grown and evolved with me over the years. Today, in my efforts to connect students to content and to the world through innovative instructional practices, I have found that Nearpod not only prioritizes engagement, but also meaningful connection. It offers features such as polls, student notes, Google Apps Integration, and On the Fly sharing—all demonstrating a dedication to the sharing of student voice and promotion of authentic learning.

Currently, as I see that teachers are seeking digital technologies and platforms that allow students to move along a continuum of technology integration, I find that Nearpod offers flexibility for every user regardless of grade level, area of study, or type of device being used. With both teacher reports and real-time assessment, teachers can monitor comprehension and understanding and can adjust accordingly to highest levels of student success. Nearpod highlights and celebrates the work of teachers through sharing in the content library, and though I have continued to renew my Gold Level Edition year after year, the free version provides a robust platform for the creation and sharing of Nearpod presentations.

The entire Nearpod team demonstrates dedication to the product and to customer success. Offering a solutions-based approach that is pedagogically driven and educationally sound, the team aims to support all classrooms, all teachers, and all students in their search for knowledge. Now any educator, anywhere in the world has the platform to have his or her voice shared in a powerful way. For me, Nearpod is the tool that can transform learning! 5+ Stars!
