Using a formative assessment in your classroom can be an efficient way to gauge student learning, provide feedback, and measure student growth. There are a variety of tools to choose from, including games and apps, digital forms, and interactive slides.
Nearpod and Pear Deck are two tools that are worth a look. The Nearpod app has more features than the Pear Deck app, but it requires a bit of legwork to get set up. The Pear Deck app syncs with Google Classroom, making it easier to share interactive lessons with students.

Pear Deck offers a free version, as well as a paid version. The free version can be used by anyone, but the paid version offers additional features, including draggable slides and a teacher dashboard to save and share reports.
Grade students’ responses
Using Pear Deck, teachers can easily create presentations in the form of Google Slides. Teachers can have students respond to questions, create interactive presentations, or use text-based templates. These materials can be shared with students and parents. The presentation can also be opened in a separate window or tab.
Students can respond to questions using a variety of options, including numerical answers, text, drawing, and audio. The questions can be selected on an individual or group level. Pear Deck makes it easy to monitor student engagement. It also allows teachers to add interactive features such as polls and quizzes. Teachers can also add impromptu questions.
Pear Deck is a great tool for teachers to use when teaching remotely. With this technology, teachers can connect students from different classrooms. They can also use Pear Deck to assign homework and collect in the moment feedback. Pear Deck can also be used to label scientific drawings.
