Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to take a compelling case for the role of online learning platforms in facilitating student learning and to explore plausible strategies for optimizing the student learning experience. The project described in this paper is based on a fourth-grade English language arts course. This research shows that those students who use Nearpod in class are more motivated and capable of improving their learning, which is a change that can be highly beneficial to students. Students were asked to participate in various activities as part of this project. A pre-test was administered at the start of the project to ascertain students’ prior knowledge. Numerous assessment tools provided additional data for educational implementation to help students improve their learning process. The project combines self-study and discourse activities to help students develop more complex thinking, and peer-reviewed discussion boards to help develop students’ communication skills. Finally, virtual reality was seamlessly integrated into the classroom, allowing students to learn about and interact with the most cutting-edge technological advancements. When considering the difficulties encountered during the pandemic with face-to-face instruction, this method of teaching, which is based on the Nearpod online learning platform, is more easily understood and embraced by a broader range of students.
