Pear Deck Student Paced for Remote Learning

Pear Deck is an incredible resource that supports student engagement and student voice through formative assessment, exit slips, reflections, interactive questions, discussion prompts, and more. Teachers can use Pear Deck to add interactive questions to any presentation. Pear Deck can be used during live Remote Learning Experiences using Zoom or Google Hangout or students can explore the deck on at their own pace using the student-paced mode.

Getting started with Pear Deck is simple as connecting the Add-on to Google Slides. The Pear Deck Google Slides Add-on is an incredible tool that integrates with existing slide decks to add interactive elements that allow viewers to engage during the presentation. Interactive slides include:

• Multiple choice
• Text entry
• Numeric entry
• Drawing
• Draggable

Pear Deck has become an essential remote learning tool for my classroom. I've shared several student-paced decks and the feedback from my students has been very positive.

I've been sharing these through Google Classroom, but you can share the link to the student-paced decks just about anywhere.

Pear Deck has also put together an awesome collection of Remote Learning Resources that are definitely worth exploring.
