Genially in a nutshell
How do I make a presentation interactive and how does Genially work? Find the answers to all of your slide-related questions here!
What’s an interactive presentation?
Interactive slides contain clickable hotspots, links, buttons, and animations that are activated at the touch of a button. Instead of reading or watching passively, your audience can actively interact with the content.
Genially’s interaction presentation software allows you to combine text, photos, video clips, audio and other content in one deck. It’s a great way to condense more information into fewer slides.
If you’re a teacher, you can share multiple materials in one single learning resource. Students can create their own projects using digital media and online maps. For business or training, try embedding spreadsheet data, PDFs, and online content directly in your slides.
An interactive slide deck is more user-friendly than a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation or Google Slides document. That’s because you can break information down into chunks with pop-ups, labels, voiceovers and annotated infographics.
The other benefit of interactive content is increased engagement. It’s easier to keep your audience’s attention when they’re actively participating. Try Genially’s presentation software and free slideshow maker to see how it’s better than other presentation websites. You won’t go back to standard presentation apps!
How do you make a clickable slide?
The best way to make slides clickable is to use Genially’s free interactive presentation program. Design your slide then apply an interaction. In a couple of clicks, you can add popup windows, hyperlinks, close-up images, games, animations, multimedia and other content.
Choose from the library of hotspot buttons and icons to show people what to click on. Go to Presenter View to get a preview and see how your content will appear to your audience.
How do I create presentations that look professional?
You’ve got a deadline looming and you’re staring at the screen with a blank presentation. We’ve all been there! Starting a presentation design from scratch is tricky, especially if you’re short on time.
Genially’s free online presentation maker has over 2000 ready-to-use templates for professional slide presentations, photos slideshows, and more. Each slide design has been created by our team of top graphic designers. No need to worry about fonts, centering images, or designing a matching color scheme. It’s all done for you.
Start by browsing our layouts and themes for education, business and then customize with your own text and images.
How do I share or download my slides?
Because Genially is a cloud based presentation software, you can simply share the link to your slides. Like other online presentation tools, there are no files to download or store on your computer. Everything is saved online.
When you publish your slide deck, it gets its own unique url, just like a website. Share the link with others to let them explore the content in their own time. If you’re presenting live, just click the Present button.
You can also embed your presentation on your website, company wiki, or social media. Genially is compatible with WordPress, Moodle, Google Classroom, and other platforms. If you use an LMS, you can also download your interactive design slides in SCORM format.
For slideshow videos and slideshows with music, share online or download as an MP4 video. Check out our free slideshow templates for ideas.
Can I make a free presentation in Genially?
You bet! Genially is an easy-to-use slide maker, with a free version and paid plans. The free plan allows you to create unlimited slides with interactions and animations. Subscribe to one of our paid plans for more advanced features.

Interactive Presentation: How to Create Yours with AhaSlides | Ultimate Guide 2024
Jasmine • 06 September, 2024 • 16 min read
We live in an age where attention is like gold dust. Precious and hard to come by.
TikTokers spend hours editing videos, all in an effort to hook viewers in the first three seconds.
YouTubers agonise over thumbnails and titles, each one needing to stand out in a sea of endless content.
And journalists? They wrestle with their opening lines. Get it right, and readers stick around. Get it wrong, and poof - they're gone.
This isn't just about entertainment. It's a reflection of a deeper shift in how we consume information and interact with the world around us.
This challenge isn't just online. It's everywhere. In classrooms, boardrooms, at big events. The question's always the same: How do we not just grab attention, but hold it? How do we turn fleeting interest into meaningful engagement ?

What is an interactive presentation.
An interactive presentation is an engaging method of sharing information where the audience actively participates rather than just passively listening. This approach uses live polls, quizzes, Q&As, and games to get viewers directly involved with the content. Instead of one-way communication, it supports two-way communication, letting the audience shape the presentation's flow and outcome. Interactive presentation is designed to get people active, help them remember things, and create a more collaborative learning or discussion environment.
Main benefits of interactive presentations:
Increased audience engagement: Audience members stay interested and focused when they actively take part.
Better memory: Interactive activities help you remember important points and reinforce what you've gained.
Enhanced learning outcomes: In educational settings, interaction leads to a better understanding.
Better teamwork: Interactive presentations make it easier for people to talk to each other and share ideas.
Real-time feedback: Live polls and surveys give useful feedback in real-time.

5 Effective Techniques To Make Presentations Interactive
Still wondering how to make a presentation interactive and super engaging? Here are keys:
Icebreaker activities
Icebreaker activities are a great way to kick off your presentation and create a welcoming atmosphere. They help to break the ice between you and your audience, and they can also help to get your audience engaged in the material. Here are some ideas for icebreaker activities:
- Name games: Ask participants to share their name and an interesting fact about themselves.
- Two truths and a lie: Have each person in your audience share three statements about themselves, two of which are true and one of which is a lie. The other members of the audience guess which statement is the lie.
- Would you rather?: Ask your audience a series of "Would you rather?" questions. This is a great way to get your audience thinking and talking.
- Polls: Use a polling tool to ask your audience a fun question. This is a great way to get everyone involved and to break the ice.
Storytelling
Storytelling is a powerful way to captivate your audience and make your message more relatable. When you tell a story, you are tapping into your audience's emotions and imagination. This can make your presentation more memorable and impactful.
To craft compelling stories:
- Start with a strong hook: Grab your audience's attention from the beginning with a strong hook. This could be a question, a surprising fact, or a personal anecdote.
- Keep your story relevant: Make sure your story is relevant to your presentation topic. Your story should help to illustrate your points and make your message more memorable.
- Use vivid language: Use vivid language to paint a picture in your audience's mind. This will help them to connect with your story on an emotional level.
- Vary your pace: Don't speak in a monotone. Vary your pace and volume to keep your audience engaged.
- Use visuals: Use visuals to complement your story. This could be images, videos, or even props.
Live feedback tools
Live feedback tools are a great way to encourage active participation and gather valuable insights from your audience. These tools can help you gauge your audience's understanding of the material, identify areas where they need more clarification, and get feedback on your presentation overall.
Consider using:
- Polls: Use polls to ask your audience questions throughout your presentation. This is a great way to get their feedback on your content and to keep them engaged.
- Q&A sessions: Use a Q&A tool to allow your audience to submit questions anonymously throughout your presentation. This is a great way to address any concerns they may have and keep them engaged in the material.
- Word clouds: Use a word cloud tool to collect feedback from your audience on a specific topic. This is a great way to see what words and phrases come to mind when they think about your presentation topic.
Gamify the presentation
Gamifying your presentation is a great way to keep your audience engaged and motivated. Interactive presentation games can make your presentation more fun and interactive, and it can also help your audience to learn and retain information more effectively.
Try these gamification strategies:
- Use quizzes and polls: Use quizzes and polls to test your audience's knowledge of the material. You can also use them to award points to the audience members who answer correctly.
- Create challenges: Create challenges for your audience to complete throughout your presentation. This could be anything from answering a question correctly to completing a task.
- Use a leaderboard: Use a leaderboard to track your audience's progress throughout the presentation. This will help to keep them motivated and engaged.
- Offer rewards: Offer rewards to the audience members who win the game. This could be anything from a prize to a bonus point on their next exam.
Pre and post-event surveys
Pre and post-event surveys are a great way to gather feedback from your audience and improve your presentations over time. Pre-event surveys can help you to identify your audience's expectations and tailor your presentation accordingly. Post-event surveys can help you to see what your audience liked and disliked about your presentation, and they can also help you to identify areas for improvement.
Here are some tips for using pre and post-event surveys:
- Keep your surveys short and sweet. Your audience is more likely to complete a short survey than a long one.
- Ask open-ended questions. Open-ended questions will give you more valuable feedback than closed-ended questions.
- Use a variety of question types. Use a mix of question types, such as multiple choice, open-ended, and rating scales.
- Analyze your results. Take the time to analyze your survey results so that you can make improvements to your presentations in the future.

9 Steps For Interactive Presenters To Wow Audiences
Identify your goals.
Effective interactive presentations don't happen by chance. They need to be carefully planned and organized. First, make sure that each interactive part of your show has a clear goal. What do you want to achieve? Is it to gauge understanding, spark discussion, or reinforce key points? Is it to see how much people understand, start a conversation, or stress important points? Pick activities that fit with your material and audience once you know what your goals are. Lastly, practice your whole presentation, including the parts where people can connect with you. This practice run will help you find problems before the big day and make sure everything goes smoothly.
Know your audience
For an interactive slideshow to work, you need to know who you're talking to. You should think about your audience's age, job, and amount of tech knowledge, among other things. This knowledge will help you make your content more relevant and pick the right interactive parts. Find out how much your audience already knows about the subject. When you're talking to experts, you might use more complex interactive activities. When you're talking to regular people, you might use easier, more straightforward ones.
Start strong
The presentation intro can set the tone for the rest of your talk. To get people interested right away, use an icebreaker game. This could be as easy as a quick question or a short activity to get people to know each other. Make it clear how you want the audience to participate. To help people connect with you, show them how any tools or platforms you use work. This makes sure that everyone is ready to take part and knows what to expect.
Balance content and interaction
Interactivity is great, but it shouldn't take away from your main point. When you're giving your presentation, use interactive features wisely. Too many interactions can be annoying and take attention away from your main points. Spread out your interactive parts so that people are still interested in the whole show. This pace helps your audience stay focused without being too much. Make sure you give both your information and the interactive parts enough time. Nothing irritates an audience more than feeling like they are being rushed through activities or that the show is going too slowly because there are too many interactions.
Encourage participation
The key to a good interactive presentation is making sure that everyone feels like they can participate. To get people to take part, stress that there are no wrong choices. Use language that makes everyone feel welcome and encourages them to join in. However, don't put people on the spot, as this can make them feel anxious. When talking about sensitive topics or with people who are more shy, you might want to use tools that let people respond anonymously. This can get more people to take part and get more honest comments.
Be flexible
Things don't always go as planned, even when you plan them out very well. For every engaging part, you should have a backup plan in case the technology fails or the activity doesn't work for your audience. You should be ready to read the room and change how you talk based on how people react and how energetic they are. Don't be afraid to move on if something isn't working. On the other hand, if a certain exchange is leading to a lot of discussion, be ready to spend more time on it. Give yourself some room to be spontaneous in your talk. Most of the time, the most memorable times happen when people interact in ways that no one expected.
Use interactive presentation tools wisely
Presentation technologies can make our talks a lot better, but if it's not used correctly, it can also be annoying. Before you give a show, you should always test your IT and tools. Make sure that all of the software is up to date and works with the systems at the presentation place. Set up a plan for tech help. If you have any technical problems during your talk, know who to call. It's also a good idea to have non-tech options for each engaging part. This could be as easy as having handouts on paper or things to do on a whiteboard ready in case something goes wrong with the technology.
Manage time
In interactive presentations, keeping track of time is very important. Set clear due dates for each engaging part, and make sure you follow them. A timer that people can see can help you, and they stay on track. Be ready to end things early if you need to. If you're short on time, know ahead of time which parts of your talk can be shortened. It's better to squish together a few exchanges that work well than to rush through all of them.
Gather feedback
To make the best interactive presentation the next time, you should keep improving with every talk. Get feedback by giving surveys after the show. Ask the people who attended what they liked best and worst about the presentation and what they would like to see more of in future ones. Use what you've learned to improve how you create interactive presentations in the future.

Innovative Presentation Ideas: Captivate Your Audience with Creative Approaches
Creating an engaging presentation requires more than just delivering information—it’s about capturing your audience's attention, making your message memorable, and encouraging interaction. To help you stand out and leave a lasting impression, here are some innovative presentation ideas that can elevate your content and captivate your audience.
1. Interactive Polls and Q&A Sessions
Engagement through interaction.
Integrating interactive elements such as live polls or Q&A sessions can significantly increase audience participation and engagement. These tools make your presentation more dynamic and allow you to tailor your content based on real-time feedback.
How to Implement:
- Live Polls: Use platforms like Slido or Mentimeter to conduct live polls where the audience can vote on questions or provide opinions. Display the results immediately to spark discussions.
- Q&A Sessions: Allocate time for a Q&A segment where the audience can ask questions. Consider using a tool that allows anonymous submissions to encourage more candid questions.
Scenario: During a marketing strategy presentation, start with a live poll asking the audience about their biggest marketing challenges. Use the poll results to shape the rest of your presentation, addressing the most common issues.
2. Storytelling with Visuals
Bring your message to life.
Storytelling is a powerful technique for making your presentation memorable. Combine storytelling with compelling visuals to create a narrative that resonates with your audience and makes your message more impactful.
- Narrative Arc: Structure your presentation as a story with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Introduce characters, conflicts, and resolutions to make your content relatable.
- Visual Aids: Use high-quality images, videos, and infographics to illustrate key points and evoke emotions. Tools like Canva or Adobe Spark can help create visually appealing content.
Scenario: In a pitch for a new product, start with a story about a customer’s journey before and after using your product. Use images and video clips to illustrate the transformation, making the benefits of your product tangible and relatable.
3. Gamification
Make learning fun.
Gamification involves incorporating game-like elements into your presentation to make learning more engaging. This approach can turn routine information into an interactive experience, boosting motivation and retention.
- Quizzes and Challenges: Include quizzes or challenges throughout your presentation. Award points or prizes for correct answers to keep the audience engaged.
- Interactive Scenarios: Create scenarios or simulations where the audience can make decisions and see the outcomes. This can be particularly effective in training or educational presentations.
Scenario: During a workshop on project management, organize a team-based challenge where groups compete to solve a case study. Use a leaderboard to track progress and provide rewards for the winning team.
4. Live Demonstrations and Showcases
Show, don’t just tell.
Live demonstrations can make your presentation more engaging by providing practical, hands-on examples of your product or concept. This approach allows your audience to see your ideas in action and better understand their application.
- Product Demos: If you’re presenting a new product, demonstrate its features and benefits live. Allow the audience to interact with the product if possible.
- Live Simulations: For educational or technical presentations, conduct a live simulation to showcase how a process works in real time.
Scenario: In a tech conference presentation, perform a live demo of your software, showing its key features and benefits. Allow the audience to ask questions and interact with the software during the demo.
5. Audience Participation Activities
Encourage active involvement.
Involving your audience in activities can make your presentation more interactive and memorable. Participation activities can range from group discussions to hands-on exercises, depending on your presentation’s goals.
- Breakout Sessions: Divide the audience into small groups to discuss specific topics or solve problems. Have each group share their findings with the larger audience.
- Interactive Exercises: Incorporate activities such as role-playing, brainstorming sessions, or creative workshops to engage the audience actively.
Scenario: During a leadership training session, organize a role-playing exercise where participants act out different leadership scenarios. Facilitate a discussion afterward to reflect on the exercise and extract key lessons.
6. Incorporating Augmented Reality (AR)
Enhance the presentation experience.
Augmented Reality (AR) can create immersive experiences that captivate your audience and bring your content to life. This technology can be particularly effective for presentations involving complex data or concepts.
- AR Apps: Use AR applications to overlay digital content onto physical objects or environments. Tools like Zappar or ARKit can help integrate AR into your presentation.
- Interactive Models: Create interactive 3D models that the audience can explore using AR, enhancing their understanding of the subject matter.
Scenario: In a presentation about architectural design, use AR to allow the audience to view 3D models of building projects through their smartphones or tablets, giving them a better sense of the design and layout.
7. Utilizing Data Visualization
Simplify complex information.
Effective data visualization can help simplify complex information and make it more accessible. Using charts, graphs, and infographics can enhance understanding and retention.
- Infographics: Create infographics that summarize key data points and trends. Tools like Piktochart or Tableau can assist in designing effective visualizations.
- Interactive Charts: Use interactive charts and graphs that allow the audience to explore data in real time.
Scenario: During a financial report presentation, use interactive charts to display revenue trends and projections. Allow the audience to filter the data by different criteria to explore various scenarios.
8. Incorporating Live Feedback
Adapt and improve in real time.
Collecting live feedback during your presentation allows you to adjust your content based on audience responses and interests. This approach can help you address the most relevant issues and maintain engagement.
- Live Feedback Tools: Use tools like Mentimeter or Slido to gather real-time feedback from your audience. Pose questions or request opinions throughout the presentation.
- Instant Polls: Conduct quick polls to gauge the audience’s understanding or interest in specific topics, and adjust your content accordingly.
Scenario: In a product launch presentation, use live polls to ask the audience about their preferences or concerns regarding the product. Use the feedback to address these points in real time.
Innovative presentation ideas can significantly enhance your ability to engage and captivate your audience. By incorporating interactive elements, storytelling, gamification, live demonstrations, audience participation, AR, data visualization, and live feedback, you can create a presentation that is not only informative but also memorable and impactful. Tailor these ideas to fit your presentation’s goals and audience to ensure a successful and engaging experience.
