You might not leave this workshop with X-ray vision or the ability to leap tall buildings, but you will learn super-human Nearpod skills that allow you to combine your existing presentations with real-time interactivity and feedback. Nearpod is a web tool app that allows teachers to deliver interactive content and assessment activities to students, who can join the Nearpod session from anywhere. Multimedia content captures students' attention, keeping them focused and minimizing off-task behavior. The ability to add engaging interactive features like polls, drawings, quizzes and free text activities not only increases engagement, but also provides teachers with valuable feedback on student learning.
