# Install Pear Deck in Schoology

> Install the Pear Deck LTI app in Schoology so teachers and students can run sessions without leaving the platform

This article is for Schoology administrators who want to install the Pear Deck app for their organization. Once installed, teachers can present Pear Deck Sessions and students can join them without leaving the Schoology environment. This integration requires a district or school-wide Pear Deck subscription.

## Generate Your Integration Key and Secret

1. As the Subscription Manager of your Pear Deck school or district subscription, go to your [Pear Deck My Account page](https://app.peardeck.com/home/my-account) and click **+ Add New Integration**.

## Assign Access to Users

   <Note>
     Both teachers and students require access to Pear Deck for the integration to work correctly.
   </Note>

   If your Schoology access is more limited, you will see an option to install the LTI app for all courses or course admins only. Select **All Courses**.

Once access is granted, teachers can present and students can join presentations directly within Schoology.
