What is Pear Deck?
Pear Deck is designed to help students develop a positive academic mindset by fostering a connected classroom community. Students join the teacher’s lesson on their own device and individually respond to the prompts, giving the quietest students a voice, while giving vocal students a way to participate without dominating discussion. Teachers see the responses in real time, allowing them to change course in the moment, if needed.
Pear Deck is designed to encourage instructional practices that facilitate better outcomes for all students through active engagement, deeper learning, fostering a growth mindset, and supporting the whole child.
