Nearpod is an ed-tech platform founded in 2012 by Emiliano
Abramzon, Felipe Sommer and Guido Kovalskys. The platform
allows teachers to create, download and teach interactive lesson
plans while engaging students in real-time across all devices in
a classroom. With an increasing catalog of digital lesson plans
and cutting edge features like virtual reality field trips and 3D
objects, Nearpod reaches students in K-12 schools globally.
"Our district has launched Nearpod this year with incredible
results. It is being used both in & out of the classroom. In
the first 4 months of the year there were almost 13,000
lessons launched." Tracey Mikos, Volusia County Schools, FL
"Best teacher EVER! Those are the words I hear in my classroom
when my students use Nearpod. We recently used it with our
geography unit to take virtual field trips all over the world. I feel
very lucky to be able to give students these opportunities and
new experiences." Jennifer Ferguson, Chesterfield County Public Schools, VA
