Curriculum Announcements: Semester Course Block 3 Nearpods!

Newly updated Semester Course units means new Nearpods!

Last week we released the final block of newly updated Semester Course units. With that final update, we’re excited to release the newly updated Nearpod decks for those same lessons! Head over to the Semester Course page to check out the new lessons and Nearpods for yourself.


What’s New in the Nearpods?

  • New stylization and formatting
  • Increased use and variety of Nearpod features
  • Same updated content as all Semester Course updates
  • Google Slide templates for editing are now provided as a link in Nearpod lessons and no longer accessible on the website

Tip: If you still need to access the old Semester Course units, including Nearpods, you can find it here (also accessible through the retired resources button found in your teacher account).


What If I'm a NGPF Nearpod License Grant Recipient?

If you are a NGPF Nearpod license grant recipient you will also be able to access NGPF’s new SC Nearpod lessons in the District Library of your Nearpod account.
