Small Changes, BIG IMPACT with Nearpod

 

Did you tune in to our KIC Start Your Learning on January 18th?

No? Well then... you missed a really AMAZING learning opportunity with our very own Shannon Bryant, Coordinator of Virtual Learning in Keller ISD. Around here she is known for ALL things Nearpod (and Friday cheers, just ask her!😉). During KIC Start Your Learning, she shared ways to utilize this robust tool for a BIG IMPACT with students in the classroom. 

How do you get the training? Glad you asked. 👍 Use the link below or watch the embedded video. 

During this 30 minute training, Shannon brings you 5 different tools within Nearpod for student engagement and interaction in the classroom and beyond. These 5 tools can be used within learning presentations OR as stand-alone activities.

Find the video on our KISD Educational Technology YouTube Channel at https://youtu.be/DgMLZy5vD18.
