What do you like best about Pear Deck for Google Slides Add-on for G Suite?

I love the Peardeck Google Slides add-on! As a teacher who has been teaching synchronously online, Peardeck is a game-changer. Imagine a traditional Power Point where a teachers lecture is unidirectional, and students all take their own individual notes. How boring is that, right? With Peardeck students can join my presentation on any device and they will answer questions on each slide. Now I can track how engaged all students are at all times on every slide! It's become an essential part of my online teaching. When you're all done with your session, Peardeck will automatically email all participants the slides they interacted with to have for the future.

What do you dislike about Pear Deck for Google Slides Add-on for G Suite?

I dislike that Peardeck does not allow a teacher to set a limit on the "student paced" mode. As it stands, peardeck is either "instructor" paced where students are always following the same slide as the instructor. The second option is "student paced" where students can scroll through the slide-deck at any rate they desire. I dislike that Peardeck does not allow a "limit" where it can be student paced for slides 8-12 but not 13-15.

I also dislike that peardeck is only text based, and that students can't upload audio or video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
