Pear Deck Introduces Pear Pop™, Powerful Student Engagement with One Step, Zero Prep

IOWA CITY, Iowa, Feb. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Pear Deck, a leader in edtech solutions for K-12 classrooms, announced the introduction of Pear Deck Pear Pop™, a quick and powerful way to add student engagement and formative assessment to any learning activity. With speed and spontaneity in mind, Pear Pop gives educators an instant array of flexible, effective teaching prompts to deploy to student devices with just one click.

"Pear Deck is about helping teachers to deeply engage all students in the classroom and enable best teaching practices," says Michal Eynon-Lynch, Pear Deck's Chief Educator. "But we know lessons take many different forms; a formative assessment or a teachable moment can't always be pre-planned. Pear Pop is about giving teachers that same Pear Deck power regardless of lesson format, course content, or prep time."

Educators around the world have fallen in love with Pear Deck because of its ability to transform classroom presentations into engaging conversations and provide real-time insight into individual student learning. The introduction of Pear Pop is an exciting extension of the Pear Deck experience, giving teachers unprecedented flexibility to leverage formative assessment during any activity, without needing a presentation.

Pear Pop is the latest product release from the innovative edtech startup, which was founded by educators with a vision to leverage classroom technology to support proven pedagogy and active learning techniques. Last month, Pear Deck announced a beta integration with Microsoft accessibility tool Immersive Reader, another step towards helping teachers deliver powerful learning moments to diverse learners everywhere.
