What is Nearpod?
Nearpod, now part of Renaissance Learning, lets teachers turn slides, videos, and PowerPoints into interactive lessons with quizzes, polls, collaborate boards, 3D objects, and VR field trips. Lessons can be delivered live or self-paced, with real-time insights letting teachers see how students respond and adjust instruction on the spot. The Nearpod Library offers over 22,000 standards-aligned lessons and activities, and an AI Create tool can generate interactive lessons and formative assessments automatically.
Nearpod's free Silver plan includes 300MB of storage and supports 40 students per lesson. Paid Gold ($159/year) and Platinum ($397/year) plans raise storage and student limits and unlock features like the AI Create question generator and student notes. Schools and districts can get a custom Enterprise license with unlimited storage and admin reporting.
