As Google Slides became most robust in its ability to compete with PowerPoint, the add-on Pear Deck sealed the deal for me. I am convert! All hail Pear Deck!
Pear Deck is an easy add-on to use on Google Slides that allows you to
1) have students follow along with the presentation on their own devices (it's web-based so it works on both smart phones, Chromebooks and laptops).
2) have students answer questions throughout the lesson.
In order to ask a question to the class, it is as easy an adding a new slide and typing your question. Pear Deck allows you to ask multiple choice, text or number questions. You can even use the add-on to send students to a website of your choice to research something during the lesson. There are a couple of premium types of questions (draw and draggables) that require a paid membership.
Here is a great tutorial on how to set up a Pear Deck:
When I create the presentation, I think of what I would normally ask throughout that lesson and add those questions as Pear Deck slides. I love that students are able to answer by drawing a picture. This was incredible when we reviewed position-time and velocity-time graphs. I could even see their responses in real time, and so can the rest of the class. It was very effective to display the answers and discuss any inaccuracies we saw - all without identifying the student.
All in all, here is an innovative technology that will help increase student engagement and improve student learning.
