Pear Start Tools
The tools are separated into two sections: Popular and All Tools.
Popular Tools consists of tools teachers have used in the last 30 days and pinned as their favorites.
All Tools are separated into the following categories: content, questions, communication, fun, & planning.
When you click on a tool's name to open it, a description highlights the tool's purpose and the type of content it creates. Next to the description is a Use Example button, which fills out the fields with a popular way the tool can be used in your class.
When requesting the changes in the text field, please use the Quick Prompt feature for popular changes or enter your change and click Generate, which creates a separate section with your change. The new section will be integrated into your content.
Transform
Use the Transform feature to convert it into materials that can be used in Pear Deck Learning apps. These tools integrate with Pear Deck, Pear Assessment, and Pear Practice. Below is a chart that explains each option:
