LMS and EdTech platform: Pear Deck

Pear Deck adds LTI 1.3 for Canvas and Schoology; most other entries are pointers.

◆Current state
The feed alternates between release-note pointers with no content and a few substantive posts. The substantive ones cover AI workflows for test creation, analysis and curriculum alignment across Pear Deck and Pear Assessment, in beta in May and extended in August, and LTI 1.3 support for Canvas and Schoology on October 14. A Q3 overview post for Pear Assessment links out without detail.
◆Where it's heading
Recent visible work is about fitting into district systems, with LMS standards and admin coverage controls, alongside the AI assessment workflows. Most release detail stays outside the feed.
◆Prediction
More release-note pointers are likely; whether the AI workflows leave beta is unclear from the feed.
