THANK YOU SO MUCH. This video is very helpful!

Yes, I agree! It's perfect! Most other videos I've seen are too slow!

@@amberlewis5484 Too fast for me. The age gap is showin!!

Thank you for that comment, Dan! It really means a lot.

This comment makes my day! I'm so happy to hear that you'll be able to implement this in your classes to make them even better. Sending all my best!

This comment makes my day :) I'm so happy to be able to help!!! Good luck in your school year.

Thanks for this wonderful comment, Margie! Pear Deck is such a powerful tool, and I'm happy for any & all opportunities to share how and why.

Preferably Pre-K! I’m so, so happy to be able to share some of my favorite things that have worked in my classroom :)

Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment! So glad to be able to help :)

Raymond Deodato Lorenzana thanks so much for your kind comment! I’m glad this helped :)

@@StaceyRoshan guess what, I just facilitated a two hour training class using Pear Deck and G Slides. And the class loved it! that's all that's to your tutorial. :)

@@rlorenzana424 That's awesome! So excited to hear you've been able to spread the Pear Deck love! Glad to be able to be a piece of that :)

I don’t know how I’d do virtual synchronous sessions without Pear Deck! It’s such a game changer in terms of still being able to engage all and keep the focus on talking about student work. Glad this helped!

Heidi Fink glad this helped!

Thank you for the kind comment, JoAnn. So glad to be able to help!

I’m so happy to be able to help, Trinity! Thanks for the kind comment.

Dukk_Dodgers I’m so glad you found my channel and that it’s helping as you design awesome lessons for your students! Feel free to reach out if I can help at all, or to share feedback after you’ve used in class!

I'm so glad this was helpful, Diana!

So glad you found this helpful!!

Omar Ghoche awesome! Hope it goes well

Glad to be able to share!

Thanks for the kind comment! So happy to be able to share :)

Felisha Pittman so happy! Pear Deck is one of my very favorite EdTech tools to use in my classes :)

I'm so happy to hear you found my video helpful! Pear Deck is one of my favorite things, so feel free to reach out as you explore if a question comes up. Have fun!

So glad to hear that!

Ian Mitchell thanks for commenting, Ian. So happy to be able to help!

Thank you for the kind note! I am so glad this helped :)

Jennifer Locher I am glad this helped! I am using Pear Deck during our Google Meet sessions in the same way I would in the classroom. I just use a screen share instead of being able to project on the classroom projector. The is also a student-paced more if you want to assign an asynchronous assignment.

Here is a video where I share tips on using Pear Deck’s student-paced mode: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aq6UnayFubfWnmg.html

@@StaceyRoshan Thank you for responding so quick. I'm currently working on my first Pear Deck Lesson and then I too will use Google Meet and record myself along with the pear deck presentation for asynchronous learning. Thank you! I miss my students!

@@StaceyRoshan Thank you for sharing!!! I will definitely watch and use!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate the compliment! I use Camtasia to record & edit my screencasts: www.techsmith.com/video-editor.html

@@StaceyRoshan Thanks for the info. And the inspiration!

Question: Will this work if students are viewing the presentation at different times?

@@valencia8070 You'll want to turn on "student-paced mode" for students to work on their own. Here is a video where I share more about setting that up & how to view student responses as they come in: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aq6UnayFubfWnmg.html Hope that helps!

Thanks for the kind comment! So glad I was able to help in your Pear Deck journey :)

Cristina Gomez so glad to help!!

@@StaceyRoshan

EdTech4AdultESL thanks, I’m so glad this was helpful! I haven’t run into any issues with students using on mobile devices. And I’ve had a group of 200 on at once

Thank you so much, Sara!!! Your comment means a lot. Hope your year is going okay!

Hi, Alfa. Thank you for posting a comment & saying hello. So happy to be able to help!

Lourdes Garcia Larque just the teacher needs the add-on to create. Students then just log into the Pear Deck by typing the join code into their browser.

Sure! Say you have 4 class sections. You would press the "start lesson" button in the Pear Deck Add-on 4 different times and give each section its own link. Then, you can review the responses from peardeck.com by going to the sessions tab. I talk about that a bit in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oa2aerGV0dTdaX0.html Hope that helps!

So happy to be able to share :)

Thank you for the kind comment! I'm always excited to be able to share helpful tips.

So glad to be able to help!

Yes, if you have the premium version of Pear Deck, all of that information is available in the teacher dashboard. Here are more tips on that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oa2aerGV0dTdaX0.html

So glad you found this helpful! Thank you for leaving a comment :)

Pear Deck also has a student-paced mode. Here is more about that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aq6UnayFubfWnmg.html But at my school, we are still having students join us for class on Google Meet so I am using Pear Deck to engage the class as I would face-to-face. The only difference is instead of a classroom projector, it is my screen share in Google Meet.

Hi Kimberly - yes, if you have a paid Pear Deck account, you can see names attached in the "teacher dashboard." I explain more in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iZ6jfLGix6uRp30.html. I hope that helps.

Awesome, I'm glad! I have a premium plan, but most of what I show in this video is available with the free version (besides the draggable question type). Here is a breakdown: www.peardeck.com/pricing

I am using the Premium version, but most of the features I show in this particular video are in the free version (other than the draggables). Here is a breakdown of the free/paid features: www.peardeck.com/pricing

I'm so glad this helped! Some of the features are free and some paid. Here is a breakdown: www.peardeck.com/pricing

Absolutely, it will!

Can you share it to you teacher account as a collaborator and go from there? Just a thought.

Thank you! Yes, I have a premium license.

❤️I'm so happy to be able to share!

Hi, Harrell. In this video, I talk about launching Pear Deck for multiple sections of students: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bNqanayAmZmclZc.html. You just create the one Google Slides and launch a session for each section to keep responses separated. To answer your second question: yes, answers are automatically saved (on the student view and on the teacher view). Simply have students go back to the Pear Deck link and all answers are always there & editable until you close the session. You can have multiple sessions open at the same time, no problem at all!

Michael Sinclair with a paid plan, you get access to the teacher dashboard in Pear Deck with all names attached to responses. You’d just log into the session to access that data. There is also an option to export answers to google sheets

Absolutely! Just think of the "projector" as a "screen share" in Zoom or Google Meet. Here is a webinar I recently did talking about how I use Pear Deck in my online classroom: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z7B8nsuErMvTZ2w.html

Hope things are going well on your end, also! I'm so happy to hear that Pear Deck has been awesome with your classes! Yes, you can look at student work by opening the "teacher dashboard." This video should break that down a bit better: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oa2aerGV0dTdaX0.html

@@StaceyRoshan Thank you!

Neatriz Areco I’m so happy this can help you and your students!! Wishing you all the best

The Pear Deck add-on is only available through Google Slides or PowerPoint. I haven't used SmartNotebook before... Is there any way to import those slides into Google Slides or PowerPoint?

Absolutely! I've been teaching a purely online course for the last several years and rely on Pear Deck for all synchronous sessions. You can see Pear Deck + Zoom in action during this webinar I recently did: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z7B8nsuErMvTZ2w.html. Just think of the "projector" in your classroom as the "screen share" in Zoom :)

@@StaceyRoshan Is it possible to have 2 "screens" open at the same time on zoom so you have the projector/zoom screen and also the presenter screen that only you see?

@@ashleyarrastia1652 Yes, you can choose to do a screen share in Zoom with just one window so that students will just see the projector screen even though you also have the teacher dashboard up.

@@StaceyRoshan thank you!

@@StaceyRoshan Can you use this in Microsoft teams with students and still have it interactive?

Alicia H I literally run all of my online classes (I’ve been teaching a purely online math course for 3 years) through pear deck! Here is a webinar I recently did where I share more on that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z7B8nsuErMvTZ2w.html Hope it helps!!

Hi Angela - I use Camtasia to record & edit all my videos. That red box is one of the annotation types I can add in during the editing phase.

Thanks so much🥰

Absolutely, my school actually used Google Meet in the spring when we went to remote learning and it worked great. Just make sure to take some time at the beginning of the year to explain to them how to open two windows side-by-side. I even made a video about it just to make sure it was clear for everyone :) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/atVgZ85h1LSsgWQ.html

I use Camtasia to create & edit my screencasts. If you're looking for a free, simple option, my recommendation is Screencastify or Loom. Hope that helps!

All of my online students had a Wacom tablet at home... so they used that to draw with an actual pen. I don't have a great answer when students don't have that added technology available other than to draw with a mouse or type the best they can (I don't have them use equation editors because I just find it's too time consuming and not optimal)

@@StaceyRoshan Gotcha - thanks
