Nearpod vs. PitchGrade

Nearpod is great for teachers who want data to help gauge how engaged students are during lessons. Additionally, teachers in one-to-one schools can better use these tools with a lesson delivery system like Nearpod. Nearpod is especially effective when a presenter has to deliver information to a large class.

For now, it seems that Pitchgrade is best suited to giving feedback on corporate decks, whether they be for investors or colleagues in a team setting. I don't, however, see any reason that they would not also be able to give high quality feedback on other kinds of presentations, such as lectures or student assignments. If they do in the future, I will definitely use them to assess my lectures for students!

• Provide timely and individualized feedback.
• Allow for the teacher to check for understanding, for the entire class, in one view.
• Present an array of different interactive lesson items, at the fingertips of every student.

While there is some learning curve to fully understand and know how to lead a lesson with Nearpod, once mastered successfully, Nearpod lessons are simple to create and deliver. When leading a lesson, it is relatively simple to see how everyone in the class performs and how well they participate and understand.

The support staff for Nearpod is top-notch. I have not had technical issues, but I did have a concern about my bill and they reached out to me nearly immediately to address the problem. I was very satisfied with how they handled the interaction from beginning to end. They did a great job.

I don't know of a product off hand that does what Nearpod can do. Between the library of pre-made lessons, the ability to create your own lesson content, the ability to add interactive content, Nearpod offers a unique engagement platform for instruction

I have not found another product like PitchGrade. Although there are some services that charge a lot of money to provide feedback from an "expert" within a few days, I have not used any of them. The fact that Pitchgrade was free and instant made it a no-brainer for me to start using it. I imagine many companies will catch on to what PitchGrade is doing and try to imitate what they do at some point, however.

• The impact is awesome. It gives students a digital option other than PowerPoint for presentations.
• The feedback tool allows you to follow students in realtime.
• The shallow learning curve made it easy encourage other faculty to try it.

• Higher quality presentations
• Better team communication
• More positive experiences with investors and employees
