nearpod official logoHello everyone, you can download Nearpod for Google Slides. Before you do that, I hope you are all having a great day so far, I was just checking out some YouTube videos about the basketball player Te’a Cooper. She is trending after dating Dwight Howard for awhile but she really does know how to play basketball and I am wishing her all the success, she is fun to watch. Anyway, please read on…

Today we will highlight yet again another popular app, just a few hours ago I posted formLimiter for Google Forms and it seems a lot of you actually didn’t know such an add-on existed because it is now getting a lot of traffic and it has been shared on social media well over 35 times in less than 12 hours, impressive to say the least. With that said, I believe Nearpod will also be an add-on that a lot of you will find very useful. This add-on will mainly target you teachers that are looking for a way to incorporate Nearpod entire library of features with your Google Slides and Google Drive accounts. Luckily this free add-on does just that and I even included a quick video for those of you who are completely new to Nearpod and want to know what it is before you install anything. Let us know in the comments below what you think about it and if you, your school or organization find it useful.
