Learning Curve
Performance Issues
Some advanced features and templates are only available in the paid version.
While it is generally user-friendly, teachers may need some time to fully explore and master all of its functionalities.
Interactive presentations with lots of media can sometimes load slowly, particularly on devices with lower processing power or internet bandwidth.
Genially’s Constraints
Interactive Mind MapsIn a philosophy or science class, the teacher can create an interactive mind map, where each branch is clickable, revealing more details or explanations about complex concepts. Example: In a biology lesson on cells, the teacher creates an interactive presentation about the cell, where students can explore the parts of both animal and plant cells in a dynamic way.

Practical Examples
Escape RoomIn foreign languages, the teacher can create an escape room to help develop different skills. Example: Using the Simpsons characters, the English teacher can design an escape room to work on vocabulary and reading. Hints can be provided in the students' native language.
