Presentation Level: Integrate teaching and learning

Presentation Strands: Engaging the Digital Learner

Frontal instruction still has a place in classroom teaching, without needing to sacrifice student engagement and close monitoring of students’ progress. With the right web-based application, teachers can connect with every student the entire time. Pear Deck allows teachers to effortlessly build engaging instructional content, right from Google Slides, that not only captures students' attention but also enables teachers to assess every individual student's level of understanding through formative assessments and interactive questions. Explore how frontal instruction can be optimised through Pear Deck in this hands-on session.
