- Go to assessment.peardeck.com. Individual teachers can sign up for free. If your district uses Pear Assessment, sign in through your district’s SSO.
- Search the item bank by standard, grade, subject, or keyword. You can use pre-built questions as-is or edit them to fit your context. To write your own, select a question type and enter your content.
- Include question types that match your state’s testing format — drag-and-drop, equation editors, graphing questions, or inline choice — so students practice the specific interactions they will encounter on test day.
- If you need to prevent navigation away from the test, enable the browser lockdown setting. You can also turn on dynamic passwords to control when students can begin.
- Assign via Google Classroom, paste a direct link, or use your LMS. Set a start date, end date, and any time limits.
- Open the live results view. As each student submits answers, you see their responses and scores update in real time. Use this to decide whether to re-teach a concept before moving on.
