In the era where technology rules the world, the computer-integrated classroom system has been increasingly employed to promote educational progress. However, the rapid development of tools and resources presents both opportunities and challenges. In order to maximize the potential of ICT in language teaching, it is crucial that it is used in a pedagogically sound way that provides structured comprehensive learning experiences, corresponds to learners' individual needs to promote their engagement, and facilitates teachers' roles. This workshop aims to introduce Nearpod – a freely available, real-time and user-friendly application which can serve as an excellent educational trigger for suiting a variety of learning settings and environments and satisfying educational needs. Plus, with competitive and interactive tasks (Malamed, 2012) through game-like pre-made or impromptu quizzes, discussions and surveys (Byrne, 2013; Cross, 2014; Thomas, 2014; Dellos, 2015; Plump, 2017), Nearpod has gained wide acceptance globally for infusing teaching-and-learning with energy and sparking innovative thinking (Fuszard, 2001). Nearpod is recommended to be used to provide a positive environment and nurture learning process.
