Instead of the "misuse it you lose it" mindset, I implore teachers to treat their tech as they would any other essential learning tool. Yes, this is a much more powerful tool than a pencil or book, and so with great power comes great responsibility. But should a student falter, don't take it away. Allow them to continue using it, but apply the same standards and consequences you'd give should they misuse any other essential learning tool - their pencil, book, desk or chair. And proactively support students in understanding how to make good choices through scaffolding, goal setting and clear expectations. We've taken on this new frame of mind in many of our classrooms and we're seeing great results. The students have greater respect for their digital learning tools and, most importantly, a greater access to opportunity.
On Nearpod Homework your students can answer questions about the presentations that you share with them. Nearpod Homework furnishes you with a report of your students' responses to your questions. This gives you the opportunity to review your students' progress whenever they complete a set of questions.
