Engagement



Below is a pear deck I created from an already existing Ecology lesson slide presentation.

I love the ability to have the students be interactive with the lesson in a new way.  I think this will be a great way for even some of the quieter kids to participate with out feeling as nervous.   I also like the idea of being able to save the data from the lesson to be used for formative assessments.
The only down side that  I discovered with Pear deck is that it does not like to have to many images in the presentation. This is a disappointment for me because I like to use a lot of images to help "show" what we are talking about as well as to use for questions to check for understanding.

  1. Love it. I would recommend trying to implement some questions or write-on responses to allow your students to interact more with this. Hope your summer is going well!!!

  2. Pear Deck is really catching on. I'm excited for next year. Our Chromebook teachers are rocking tech integration to new heights. Seriously.
