Summary

This app will allow schools to lock a Chromebook or Chromebox to the amazing interactive presentation website Pear Deck via kiosk mode. All images and graphics are Pear Deck copyrighted material. I have no affiliation with Pear Deck. I am just a lowly school district IT guy trying to make educators lives easier.

This kiosk app was created for my school district, but I wanted to share this with other schools that may be in need of rocking a Pear Deck kiosk app.
