Nearpod was one of my favorite tools discovered during presentations. Nearpod is a user friendly, interactive tool that could be used for instruction and assessment as well. As a future teacher, I would use this app to create videos for learning, websites, articles, images, activities for application, quizzes for assessments, polls for feedback, and more. After further researching this app, I found an article titled 10 Ways of Using Nearpod in the Classroom. This article provided great ideas for the use of this tool. I would use this tool as it would be great source for modeling lessons and concepts, live and formative assessments of my students, ongoing assessments, self-assessment for students, and instructing homework. This tool will impact student learning because students will be able learn at their own pace and acquire a clearer understanding of a topic. I had a chance to look at an instructional video on the use of Nearpod titled Get Engaged with Nearpod. I found it to be helpful in understanding how to navigate this tool. It displays the teacher and student views of the app. I loved how this app provides teachers with student pins that makes videos or links easily accessible to students.
