Interactive presentation and formative assessment platform turning Google Slides and PowerPoint into participatory lessons. Denver CO, acquired by Pear Practice.
About
Pear Deck is an interactive presentation and formative assessment platform that transforms teachers' existing Google Slides and PowerPoint presentations into participatory lessons where students respond to questions and activities in real time from their own devices. Originally developed at Pear Deck and headquartered in Denver, Colorado, the company was acquired and operates within the Pear Practice educational technology family. Pear Deck became particularly popular during the COVID-19 pandemic's shift to remote learning, when teachers needed tools that could replace the interactive elements of in-person instruction in virtual environments, and has maintained strong adoption as schools returned to in-person instruction.\n\nPear Deck's workflow integrates directly with Google Slides and PowerPoint as an add-on, allowing teachers to add interactive question types — including multiple choice, open-ended text response, drawing, draggable activities, and number-line responses — to their existing slide decks without learning a new authoring tool. During a lesson, students join the session on their devices and respond in real time, with responses visible to the teacher through an instructor dashboard and anonymously to the class through the projected display. This simultaneous visibility gives teachers immediate formative data about class understanding at the moment of instruction.\n\nPear Deck competes with Nearpod, Formative, Poll Everywhere, and other interactive classroom platforms. Its differentiation lies in the seamless integration with existing Google Slides presentations, making it extremely low-friction for teachers who already create their lessons in Google Workspace. The platform's popularity in Google Workspace for Education school environments has made it one of the most installed edtech add-ons in the Google Marketplace, particularly in districts that have not adopted a more comprehensive interactive lesson platform.
