Here are some FAQs:
How can I share my presentation with my students?
As a teacher, any lesson you create is going to show in "My Lessons." You will hover your mouse over the lesson you want to share with your students and see 2 options: Live Participation and Student-Paced. Live participation means that you and your students will go through the lesson together with you guiding the lesson the entire time. Student-paced means that the student can complete each slide at their own pace (this is perfect for homework assignments!). When you click on either option, it is going to then display a code for your students. Remember that as soon as you click on "live participation" the lesson is then "active" and ready for students to join. When you have your code displayed, you can the share/project on the board to your students to login.
How do my students login and where do they put in the code you talked about above?
When students login to Clever and click on Nearpod, they are going to see a window that asks for a code:
As soon as they enter the code, they are in the lesson and ready to go! If you are doing a live participation, they will be locked to the first screen until you guide them to the next one.
Does Nearpod have an activity library with lessons already created?
Yes! Nearpod has THOUSAND'S of pre-made lessons ready for you to add to your personal library. The best part is that you are able to search by subject, grade level, topic, skill and so much more. You can access this library by logging into your Clever account, clicking on Nearpod and then choosing the option "Nearpod Library."
