Pear Deck allows teachers to take existing content in slide decks and add interactivity — such as open response or multiple choice questions, draggable icons, or drawing options. In addition to this interactive content, a teacher can also share a link to a website for a video, research, or Google Form. It even empowers teachers to monitor student work in real time.
Collaboard & Wacom
Collaboard is a dynamic digital whiteboard software that combines the familiarity of handwriting on a traditional whiteboard with the added advantages of digital functionality. With Collaboard, you can effortlessly save, share, and organize your whiteboard presentations. The beauty of it lies in the unlimited whiteboard space it provides, ensuring that no ideas are ever lost, sparing you the need to scribble “DON’T ERASE” in the corner.

Change is scary sometimes. It also requires time. 🫠
For @adam_theillustrator, it took some time to switch the mouse over a stylus, but he never looked back. 💪

How many strokes to draw Rengoku? 🗡️💥❤️🔥
@caleo_real did this challenge and the results were..... Interesting 🤯😂
Do you count your strokes? An artist may choose to paint with as few brush strokes as possible for many reasons, including aesthetic effect, style, technique or emotional impact.
