Tostig Godwinson was an Anglo-Saxon Earl of Northumbria and brother of King Harold Godwinson. After being exiled by his brother, Tostig supported the Norwegian king Harald Hardrada's invasion of England, and was killed alongside Hardrada at the Battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066.

Before he became the king of England, William I was one of the mightiest nobles in France as the duke of Normandy, but he is best remembered for leading the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, which changed the course of English history and earned him the sobriquet William the Conqueror.

Edward the Confessor was King of the English from 1042 until his death in 1066. He was the last reigning monarch of the House of Wessex. Edward was the son of Æthelred the Unready and Emma of Normandy. He succeeded Cnut the Great's son – and his own half-brother – Harthacnut.

King Cnut the Great is famous for creating a vast North Sea Empire encompassing England, Denmark, and Norway, bringing peace and prosperity to England after centuries of Viking conflict.

Harald Sigurdsson, also known as Harald III of Norway and given the epithet Hardrada in the sagas, was King of Norway from 1046 to 1066. He unsuccessfully claimed the Danish throne until 1064 and the English throne in 1066.

Here you can put a highlighted title

Do you need more reasons to create dynamic content? Well: 90% of the information we assimilate comes through sight, and we retain 42% more information when the content is moving. What you read: interactivity and animation can turn the most boring content into something fun. At Genially, we use AI (Awesome Interactivity) in all our designs, so you can level up with interactivity and turn your content into something that adds value and engages. Visual content is a cross-cutting, universal language, like music. We are capable of understanding images from millions of years ago, even from other cultures.

Describe the topic and the contents that you will cover in class; do not forget to emphasize why the topic is interesting

With Genially templates, you can include visual resources to engage the class from minute one. You can also highlight key content to facilitate its assimilation and even embed external content that surprises and adds more context to the topic: videos, photos, audios... Whatever you want! Did you know that Genially allows you to share your creation directly, without the need for downloads? Ready for students to visualize it on any device and learn anywhere.

Down with boring content in your presentation: make it entertaining

You can create an outline to synthesize the content and use words that stick in your audience's mind.

If you are going to present live, we recommend that you train your voice and practice:The best improvisation is always the one that is most rehearsed!

Show enthusiasm, flash a smile, and maintain eye contact with your audience: 'The eyes, chico. They never lie'. Leave them speechless.
