PEAR DECK: The best tool you're Not using!
Pear Deck is a Chrome App that allows teachers to create or import PowerPoint or Google Slides presentations, ADD formative questions for students, and PUSH the presentation out to student devices so that they can follow along with instruction and participate in the interactive questions that the teacher includes. Teachers receive instant feedback to determine how well students understand the content, and are able to save each class "session" answers for later review.
