Summary

Why Use Pear Deck? Get 100% student engagement immediately

Students understand class material better. Students are more interested in the material. You know which students are stuck, who’s ready for more, and what’s confusing them. You can give every student a voice, even the shyest or most reticent. In 2015, we worked with the NYC Department of Education Office of Innovation & EdTech iZone and Johns Hopkins University to study the efficacy of Pear Deck in the classroom. The study found 65% of students agreed that Pear Deck helped them understand class material better, and 61% reported that it increased their interest in class material.

How it works: Pear Deck lets students interact with your presentation from any device.
