PearDeck is free programming like NearPod that allows for active student involvement.  PearDeck allows for 'Live Lessons' or 'Student-Paced' lessons. If the teacher selects 'Student Paced' then students are able to move through the lesson at their own pace. We now have access to PearDeck through the Google Suite as a Temple College employee.  Use your email to log in (last name first initial last 3 of ID @ templejc.edu).  

How It Can Be Used:   PearDeck can be used to:

1.  create interactive presentations.  Simply upload PowerPoint presentations or Google Slides as the basis on which you can add materials

2. allow for personalized instruction

3. serve as a repository for resources

4. provide live formative assessments (either F2F in class or virtually)

5. provide self-assessments for students

6. produce reports for faculty to measure understanding

COST:  PearDeck is free for faculty, staff, AND students through the Google Suite add-ons.
