Renaissance brings Nearpod to the Middle East

Nearpod brings lessons to life with engaging, interactive experiences

The AI-powered interactive learning platform is designed to elevate student engagement, enhance well-being and boost academic outcomes 

Dubai, Sept 19, 2025: Renaissance, a global leader in education technology, is bringing a new era of interactive learning to the Middle East with Nearpod, a comprehensive teaching and learning platform designed to elevate student engagement, well-being and academic success.  

Nearpod transforms lessons into dynamic, interactive experiences that engage every learner. With features such as live polls, quizzes, virtual reality and collaborate boards, teachers can create lessons that spark curiosity and drive participation whether teaching in-person or remotely. 

Quickly add Nearpod interactivity to any lesson by uploading your existing slides, choosing from the Nearpod library or creating a lesson directly in the platform

Educators can tailor lessons in just a few clicks, discreetly offering support to students without singling them out. Built-in tools such as Immersive Reader provide more than 60 language translations, read-aloud functionality and visual aids, making content accessible for EAL (English as an Additional Language) students and diverse learning needs.  

Now, with the launch of Nearpod’s AI Create Lesson Generator, teachers can instantly build interactive, pedagogically sound lessons from a simple prompt. Enter a topic or learning objective, and Nearpod’s AI generates a lesson plan, complete with multimedia content, engaging activities and formative assessments.  

Gamification activities, like Time to Climb, increase student engagement and give real-time insights into student understanding

This AI-powered feature saves valuable planning time and empowers teachers to focus on what matters most: connecting with students and delivering meaningful learning. Lessons can be customised to align with national standards, cultural context and individual classroom needs ensuring relevance and impact.  

When combined with the Pupil Attitudes to Self and School (PASS) survey, Nearpod becomes a powerful tool for supporting student well-being. PASS provides insights into students’ attitudes towards themselves and their learning. Teachers can use this data to inform and create lessons that build confidence, promote collaboration and support emotional well-being.
