Pear Deck for Interactive Slides

   Pear Deck is an add-on that can be used with Google Slides for interactive teaching. It provides many features to teachers or any kind of managers.

I prepared a slide which begins with an instuction and then an activity aiming to evaluate students prior knowledge about the topic I will teach.
