How students take notes with Nearpod

Nearpod's Student Notes feature allows students to take notes in a Nearpod lesson, video, or activity. Student Notes must be enabled by the teacher for students to access. When enabled students take notes during the lesson and receive their notes with a copy of the slides, videos, and activities after. 

Improve student comprehension and retention of main concepts in Nearpod lessons, videos, and activities. With Student Notes, teachers can:

  • Give students a quick and convenient method to create notes for study guides, resources when absent, or as a portfolio of work
  • Promote active learning in class and improve student organization

How students take notes during a Nearpod

1. During a Live Participation or Student-Paced Nearpod, students select the Notes icon in the top right corner. They can share the Notes to themselves via email, Google Drive or OneDrive.
