Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic required specific protocols (e.g., social distancing, quarantine), which defied the notions of the traditional classroom and called for instructors to adapt content delivery. To empower students, some universities employed a HyFlex model that allowed students to choose their attendance modality (e.g., face-to-face, synchronous, asynchronous). As many instructors rely on student interaction to gauge content comprehension and grade participation, an innovative approach to connect content and assessment was essential. Additionally, it was crucial to prioritize students as they were expected to adapt to new content delivery. Therefore, the authors decided to use a complimentary interactive technology, specifically Nearpod, in an intentional effort to assess student progress, increase engagement, and reduce academic anxiety. Overall, Nearpod created a constructive classroom environment in an unfamiliar time.
