description Nearpod is a learning platform that allows interactions between students in online learning so that students can have the opportunity to provide ideas and answers to questions given directly. We used qualitative methods to analyze the differences between students’ understanding of learning material before and after using Nearpod. The objects were 30 students who studied teaching materials for three months. The test material was used for students to study. In 40−60% of learning, the materials were used. An examination was conducted by composing sentences and making sentences. The change in the increase in student’s errors showed a significant difference. In conversation-solving questions, correct answers increased from 33 to 74%, and in sentence construction, that increased from 30 to 67%. This result presented students’ positive responses to Nearpod with a satisfaction rate of 80%. Students who used Nearpod improved word memory but needed to pay attention to the choice of words when typing using pinyin input.
