Student Engagement Tool
Overall Pear Deck is an amazing tool that has revitalized my instruction.
Pros
Pear Deck has taken my instruction to a new level. By making presentations interactive and engaging my lessons are much more effective. My students enjoy the interactive elements and engage in the lesson much better.
Cons
I would like to see more types of interactivity in the future. Also, the web integration does not always work because of the way it is embedded.
Reasons for choosing Pear Deck
Pear Deck offers a different level of interactivity and engagement for students. The features work better with Google Slides by integrating directly in the slide not creating a new slide for the new content.
Response from Pear Deck
Thanks for writing a review, Christopher! We're so happy we can support your teaching.

Great way to connect with students!
Positive!

As a teacher it is nice to be able to connect with students in class in a remote way. Students can add there thoughts, opinions, and ideas to a class discussion without necessarily needing to speak. Gives even the shyest student a voice.
Cons
Not completely user friendly. Takes a few times to figure out how to use and implement.
