Nearpod: Powerpoint the Way It Should Be

After a quickly passing month, I have found the new love for more effectively teaching students: Nearpod!  This BYOD and very device neutral app (it works on Apple, Android, Windows, and Blackberry) allows for teacher led instruction and interactivity; a.k.a. taking powerpoint to the next level! You can take previously created powerpoints and upload them to the program, then add in the free interactive tools (open ended questions,  polling, mulitple choice, and drawing).  If you don't want to recreate the wheel, the Nearpod Store features lots of free lessons and some paid that you can use to start your journey.  Take a look, I think you will love it as much as I do.

    I work with teachers and students as a Digital Media Specialist for the Pearland ISD Curriculum Department. My goal is to share innovative and useful information for other educators, as well as catalog my personal finds along the way!
