Need more reasons to use dynamic content in the classroom? Well: 90% of the information we assimilate comes to us through vision and, moreover, we retain 42% more information when the content moves. What you read: interactivity and animation can make the most boring content become something fun. In Genially, we also create our designs to facilitate comprehension and learning, so that you level up with interactivity and make your content something that adds value and engages. If you want to provide additional information or develop the content in more detail, you can do so through your oral presentation. We recommend that you train your voice and rehearse: the best improvisation is always the most worked! Demonstrating enthusiasm, giving a smile, and maintaining visual contact with the rest of the people in the classroom can be your best allies when it comes to presenting content and creating motivating learning experiences.

With Genially templates you can include visual resources to engage the class from minute 1. You can also highlight key content to facilitate its assimilation and even embed external content that surprises and provides more context to the topic: videos, photos, audios... Whatever you want!

Use tables and infographics

Visual communication is a key tool. We find it easier to 'read' images than to read written text. That is why disciplines like Visual Thinking facilitate knowledge organization through the use of images, graphics, infographics, and simple drawings.

lesson plans

  • Student Achievement: Lesson plans help students learn better by providing clear goals, activities, and assessments for each class. They ensure students are engaged and understand the material (What Is a Lesson Plan and How Do You Make One?, 2024).
  • Teacher Practices: Lesson plans guide teachers in delivering effective instruction by outlining what to teach, how to teach it, and how to assess student understanding (What Is a Lesson Plan and How Do You Make One?, 2024). They help teachers stay organized and focused on student learning.

Did you know that Genially allows you to share your creation directly, without the need for downloads? Ready for students to view it on any device and learn from anywhere. We don't like to bore in our classes or work with flat content. It's time to bet on dynamic and interactive learning experiences that stimulate the thinking and creativity of each student.

When carrying out a presentation, two objectives must be pursued: conveying information and avoiding yawns. To achieve this, it can be a good practice to create an outline and use words and concepts that help with content assimilation.

Maps are a great ally, use them!

Interactive visual communication enhances learning outcomes on any topic and in any context. Before you begin creating, it's helpful to take a few minutes to consider what this map tells and teaches you.

Insert a fantastic video for your presentation

And use this space to describe it. Multimedia content is essential in a presentation, to leave everyone amazed. Also, this way you'll summarize the content and entertain the whole class.

what is a pacing guide?

  • Breaks curriculum into smaller units (Cescon, 2022)
  • Specifies timing for teaching each unit
  • Outlines sequence of instruction (Cescon, 2022)
  • May include resources and assessments
  • Provides flexibility for adjustments
  • Ensures coverage of content standards (Cescon, 2022)
  • Used by teachers for short-term planning

what is a curriculum map?

  • Overview of entire curriculum (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.)
  • Long-term scope and sequence (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.)
  • Identifies standards, objectives, topics (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.)
  • Aligned with district/school goals (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.)
  • Guides instructional planning
  • Tracks student progress over time (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.)
  • Used by curriculum specialists,
instructional leaders, teachers

pacing guides

  • Student Achievement: Pacing guides ensure that students cover all the necessary material within a school year (Cescon, 2022). They prevent rushing through content or leaving out important topics, leading to better overall understanding.
  • Teacher Practices: Pacing guides help teachers plan their time effectively, ensuring they have enough time to teach each topic thoroughly (Cescon, 2022). They also allow for flexibility to adjust instruction based on student needs.

curriculum maps

  • Student Achievement: Curriculum maps ensure that instruction is aligned with standards and objectives, providing a clear path for student learning (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.) . They promote consistency and coherence in what students are taught.
  • Teacher Practices: Curriculum maps help teachers collaborate and plan instruction across grade levels and subjects (University of Northern Colorado, n.d.). They provide a big-picture view of the curriculum, guiding teachers in creating cohesive and meaningful lessons.
