Pear Deck is interactive. You can add slides with the drag and drop feature, a draw feature, open ended questions, true/false, etc.. It's got an existing library where you can get pre-made slides or you can create your own. So many features that make learning more fun. > > **Cons**: There is a little bit of a learning curve. I started out with the pre-made slides and adjusted them. Then, when I got comfortable, I was able to create my own with no problem at all. > > Pear Deck is a wonderful tool to use in your classroom. I love that you can assign it to your students for self-paced lessons or you can use the lessons for direct teaching. The students navigate through the software easily. I love that it is fairly easy to use and engaging. ----- ### "Pear Deck makes your content engaging while keeping things simple" — 5.0/5 > **Ricardo** | *May 9, 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Pear Deck is a tool that gives superpowers to our Google Slides presentations. Pear Deck's main forté is the number of templates and different formats in which you can present information so students can digest it. Even more important, students can demonstrate and apply what they know using the very same tool. The instant feedback the teacher has is invaluable. One may think that these features are maybe difficult to apply or with a steep learning curve. None of that. Pear Deck is easy to implement over Google or Microsoft. > > **Cons**: The only con I can see is the price if the service is not provided by the school. Maybe 25% less can be more attractive for individual teachers. > > Covid-19 presented our schools with a huge challenge: how to keep students interested in our educational content remotely, without physical supervision, and with different rules. Pear Deck was one of the most instrumental tools in keeping students engaged. The plethora of templates and formats of information allowed our teachers to go full creative in presenting their information creating a two-way channel of communication. ----- ### "Pear deck for peers" — 4.0/5 > **Rachael** | *July 12, 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to have creative freedom and provide engaging ways to interact with a presentation or content. > > **Cons**: Can be tricky to learn how to share and may not be used the way you specifically intend if students have too much creative freedom. > > Use it for quick presentations that I want individual feedback to review. ----- ### "Great tool for interactive learnifn" — 5.0/5 > **Fiona** | *August 2, 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Allows people to make presentations interactive, provides opportunities for differentiation quickly and easily > > **Cons**: Adding sound to slide only plays when the slides are running peardeck. It would be nice to have the audio recordings be available or saved so they can be used outside of a peardexk session > > Great tool for learnifn ----- ### "Pear Deck for the Classroom" — 5.0/5 > **Callie** | *June 9, 2022* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I could spend hours raving about Pear Deck\! I use Pear Deck every single day in my seventh grade English Language Arts classroom. Pear Deck allows students to get started on work right away in class without needing verbal instructions from me. I use Pear Deck for daily bellringer work and interactive lessons. It takes simple Google Slides and allows students to draw, write, or interact with the lesson rather than hearing the information lecture-style. Pear Deck is easy to learn and easy to implement for occasional or daily use. > > **Cons**: Pear Deck could be improved by making assignments easier to grade through connection with a LMS, such as Google Classroom. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2031703/pear-deck?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2031703/pear-deck) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
