My Take
Some features are paid, and I hesitate to say that paying is worth the price point, but if you have the resources then I highly recommend it. Nearpod is an excellent presentation tool that my students and me use. I love the formative assessment options like quick poll, multiple choice, short answer, draw it, and more. I also highly value being able to use web content tool. Overall, I think that Nearpod is a must have app for any teacher.
How I Use It
Creating dynamic presentations with embedded interactive activities and formative assessments of various modalities. Set up time is very fast if you are uploading content that you have created in PowerPoint or Google Slides.

Engaging and easy to use for students
I think this is a great tool for me to use in my classroom. I loved how it works in real time to give feedback and monitor the progress that students are making. The only thing I didn't like about nearpod is that you have to pay for more than 40 students to the in the class at one time. While this will not be a problem for me personally, I can see this being an issue for larger classes in a college setting.

Students love the lessons I have presented . The library is extensive, and helps differentiate lessons improving student engagement.
