NearPod is an app./web tool that allows teachers to prepare lessons that combine presentation, collaboration and assessment and then manage how that information is then shared on a student’s mobile device or computer. Teachers create a slide presentation using NearPod and then embed video and add polls, quizzes and other interactive activities. This presentation with all of its interactivity can then be delivered synchronously to a class using NearPod or distributed as 'homework' for asynchronous lessons. The results of any polls, quizzes, etc are stored for retrieval by the teacher later on to monitor student performance, opinion, etc.
Format: Facilitation - participant driven with guidance from the facilitator
