Using Nearpod, an app I downloaded on my iPad, I just finished creating and uploading my first interactive presentation. Now, don't get me wrong - I've presented presentations with my iPad using Prezi and pdf's of Power Points, but never with embedded formative assessment.
I have uploaded my presentation on my iPad and it looks ready to go. I also downloaded the app on the iPads that my colleagues will be using. The only real difficulty I have encountered is having to charge the batteries on those iPads....
I am excited about using this tool and am looking forward to more engagement and participation!
This blog originated as a classroom homework site for my AP US History and AP Government students (some of the original posts remain); however, I have left the classroom and, as an instructional leader, assist teachers with instruction, curriculum, and assessment. This "revised" blog contains my thoughts and observations on improving instruction for all learners.
