Put a catchy title here that grabs the class's attention

We better capture the visual content. This type of content is associated with cognitive and psychological mechanisms. Things enter through the eyes; the first image is what counts. We associate visual content with emotions. Implement Visual Thinking in the classroom with Genially: organize information and knowledge much easier and visually through images, graphs, infographics, and simple drawings. That's the way to go! Our brain is prepared to consume visual content. And it makes sense: 90% of the information we process comes to us through sight. That's why visual content helps in more agile learning in many cases.

Down with boring content in your classes: do it to motivate

When we are told a story, it moves us. It can even touch us, making us remember stories up to 20 times more than any other content we might consume. The step-by-step interactive visual communication:

• Plan the structure of your content.
• Give visual weight to key and main points.
• Define secondary messages with interactivity.
• Establish a flow through the content.
• Measure the results.

Insert a great video in your creation

And use this space to describe it

Multimedia content is essential in a presentation, to leave everyone speechless. Moreover, this way you will summarize the content and entertain the entire class. Visual content is a cross-cutting and universal language, like music. We are able to understand images from millions of years ago, even from other cultures.

Use this space to put a great phrase

Describe the topic and the content you will cover in class

Don't forget to emphasize why the topic is interesting

With Genially templates, you can include visual resources to engage the class from minute 1. You can also highlight key content to facilitate assimilation and even embed external content that surprises and provides more context to the topic: videos, photos, audios... Whatever you want! Need more reasons to use dynamic content in class? Well: 90% of the information we assimilate comes through sight and, additionally, we retain 42% more information when the content is moving.
