Screen in Your Hands (Nearpod)

Presenter:

Catherine Lewis, Assistant Professor, Humanities, Hostos Community College

Abstract:

This presentation introduces Nearpod, an application teachers can use to create interactive mobile presentations. With Nearpod it’s possible for students to submit responses to polls, quizzes and other activities, in real-time, through any mobile device or PC/mac. Then, teachers can share the students’ results on an aggregate or individual basis. Students can join the NearPod presentation from anywhere, so the application can also be used for distance learning. Experience NearPod for yourself during this interactive session.
