Next-Gen Technology With Nearpod: Making Engagement and Collaboration Effortless
Room: IMMS 256
Presenter: Stephanie Martinez Description: Creating interactive environments that foster natural student engagement and collaboration are paramount. Nearpod was built around the concept of learning for all, to be used on any device (no matter how tech savvy or not). If you have a browser and you’re willing to create your lessons or download the free ones, you can benefit from next-gen technology in your classroom. Think of this as interactive PowerPoint, or information delivery on steroids. Nearpod is a presentation tool that allows you to add interactive tools frequently throughout your presentation. Students can respond to a multiple choice question, give their opinion in a poll, draw a response or answer an open-ended question. Instead of having one or two students answer your questions, now all students can answer. Used well, these tools can access background knowledge, promote critical thinking, and show their thinking in multiple modalities. There are actually many tools a teacher could use to do these same things, but Nearpod allows you to do it smoothly as part of a presentation AND to share student responses back out to the class easily. While geared for K-5, the presentation will be helpful for ANY instructor desiring to "transform" their classroom.
