Nearpod

Nearpod is truly useful for any educational situation - it is very easy and flexible solution for creating interactive lesson material for students. What is the coolest feature of Nearpod, is the chance to broadcast the lecture material to student's iPads - so instead of a regular textbook, all the content is in the student's device. That enables a true 21. century education environment and is at the same time better for getting students involved with the study material. A wonderful addition to the program is the chance for the teacher to control the flow of the lecture .

Nearpod is very clever program but it might be overwhelming for students who need more time to understand the content of the lecture. Therefore, it is not the best solution when teacher controls the flow of the lecture - slower-paced students might get behind and will not experience the lecture the fullest. Other than that the program is very functional and a true handyman for teachers.

Nearpod is a wonderful tool for teachers who would like to get rid of old-school textbooks and make nowadays technology-savvy students interact with the lecture content more. By sharing a presentation with students straight to their device it gets students more involved and by enabling the students to give feedback to the teacher, both sides learn from the experience!
