Nearpod - The new powerpoint

Hey guys if you are a student, chances are you are familiar with Powerpoint presentations. Powerpoint presentations can be boring at times, (Am I supposed to be excited when someone puts a different animation for every bullet point?) and if you are sitting in a lecture hall its near impossible to keep your focus with every slide. This is why I'm pumped to show you a new app called Nearpod. Nearpod is basically an interactive powerpoint presentation. It is controlled by one person, let's say a teacher, who goes through slides while the students follow along on their Ipad. I know what your thinking, who cares? Well the slides can be interactive, which keeps the students engaged in each side thus enhancing the learning process. The students can draw, answer questions, type answers etc. Looks like no more napping in my art history lecture...oops!
