But Wacom and Pear Deck work together powerfully to supercharge any teacher's slide decks, and have the potential to level up engagement in the classroom.<\/p>\n<h3>A range of options<\/h3>\n<p>Wacom has a range of products across all price points, education levels, and use cases, meaning there's a Wacom pen tablet or display that's perfect for your classroom.<\/p>\n<p>The best product for most educators is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wacom.com\/en-us\/products\/pen-tablets\/wacom-intuos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wacom Intuos Wireless<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wacom.com\/en-us\/products\/pen-displays\/wacom-one\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wacom One<\/a>, or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wacom.com\/en-us\/products\/pen-tablets\/one-by-wacom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One by Wacom,<\/a> and each comes with a free three-month trial bundle of powerful education software, including <a href=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/us\/?s=pear+deck\">Pear Deck!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>But the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wacom.com\/en-us\/products\/pen-displays\/wacom-cintiq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wacom Cintiq<\/a> is a less common, but very powerful tool for an art teacher or educator who's ready for advanced digital lessons -- and the <a href=\"https:\/\/estore.wacom.com\/en-US\/interactive-pen-and-touch-display-24-us-dth2452.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wacom BTH-2452<\/a> is purpose-designed for podiums and front of classroom use, and is perfect for college classrooms.<\/p>\n<h3>The power of the pen<\/h3>\n<p>Working digitally with a Wacom pen is intuitive, versatile, and better for learning. Pens feel familiar and comfortable for nearly everyone, even those who aren't tech-savvy or don't have much computer access or experience. They can be used in many different ways to enhance teaching and learning. And even better -- studies show that writing with a pen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snexplores.org\/article\/handwriting-better-for-notes-memory-typing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">boosts learning and retention over typing<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h3>Flexibility and reduced barriers<\/h3>\n<p>Wacom technology lowers barriers to effective digital education. Wacom technology works seamlessly with most preferred devices, operating systems, and software, especially Chromebooks -- many Wacom tablets are Works with Chromebook certified, meaning they plug in and just work with no drivers or fiddling with settings! They're built to be intuitive for all users, with a short learning curve, and are designed to work in any educational setting.<\/p>\n<h3>Enhanced engagement<\/h3>\n<p>Wacom helps teachers and students learn better together. Using a pen display or tablet means teachers can use a familiar teaching style while facing the class, not the whiteboard. They can create multimedia learning materials that have increased impact, especially in STEM and language classes. They also enable more dynamic and memorable learning, and open up new collaboration opportunities as well.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_3  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2>Pear Deck in the classroom<\/h2><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_with_border et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_1 et_pb_image_sticky\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap has-box-shadow-overlay\"><div class=\"box-shadow-overlay\"><\/div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/Drag-Dot-.jpeg\" alt=\"Drag Dot image\" title=\"Drag Dot\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/Drag-Dot-.jpeg 952w, https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/Drag-Dot--480x270.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 952px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-809990\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_4  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3>Draggable slides<\/h3>\n<p>Pear Deck's \"draggable\" slides feature means that a slide can have digital elements that students can quickly and easily manipulate to share information with the teacher all at once.<\/p>\n<p>This makes \"temperature checks\" simple and easy. Temperature checks are opportunities to ask a short, easy question to all students simultaneously, and to get instant feedback. You can get a quick idea of how your students are feeling about the pace of a lesson. Getting consensus, or near-consensus, before moving on helps ensure everyone is still with you, and can help you identify students who might need extra attention.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use draggable slides to ask a multiple-choice question -- your slide can visually display a range of options, and each student can drag an icon to their choice. Students will only see the icons themselves, while the teacher will see students' names attached to icons.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_3 et_pb_gutters2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_3  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_with_border et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_2 et_pb_image_sticky\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap has-box-shadow-overlay\"><div class=\"box-shadow-overlay\"><\/div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/math-slide.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"math-slide\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/math-slide.jpeg 952w, https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/math-slide-480x270.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 952px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-809989\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_with_border et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_3 et_pb_image_sticky\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap has-box-shadow-overlay\"><div class=\"box-shadow-overlay\"><\/div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/story-map.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"story-map\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/story-map.jpeg 952w, https:\/\/community.wacom.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2023\/01\/story-map-480x270.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 952px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-809988\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_4 et_pb_gutters1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column et_pb_column_5  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_5  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3>Individual drawing slides<\/h3>\n<p>Drawing slides include a space where students can use their pen tablet, and Pear Deck's drawing tools, to write or draw responses to questions, or to show their work.
