Tip 1 💡 Vary your Slide Types
Look, I get it. When you're starting out with AhaSlides, it's tempting to stick with what feels safe. Maybe throw in a biwo vòt, ajoute yon K & A slide, and hope nobody notices you're basically using the same formula everyone else uses.
But here's what I've learned from watching hundreds of presentations: the moment your audience thinks they've figured out your pattern, they mentally check out. It's like when Netflix keeps suggesting the same type of show—eventually, you stop paying attention to the recommendations altogether..
The cool thing about mixing up your slide types? It's like being a DJ who knows exactly when to switch up the beat. Imagine hitting the crowd with the most unexpected beat drop ever; they will absolutely go wild, and loud cheers will follow.
Let me share some slide types that most people completely ignore but absolutely shouldn't:
1. Word Cloud - It's Like Reading Minds
Okay, so it's not actually mind reading, but it's pretty close. A word cloud lets you collect single-word responses from everyone at once, then displays them visually with the most popular answers appearing larger and more prominent.
Kijan li mache? Simple—you ask a question like "What's the first word that comes to mind when I say 'Monday morning'?" and everyone types their answer on their phone. Within seconds, you've got a real-time snapshot of how your entire room is feeling, thinking, or reacting.
You can use this slide type practically at any time during the presentation. You can use it at the beginning of sessions to understand your audience's mindset, in the middle to check comprehension, or at the end to see what resonated most.
2. Rating Scales - For When Life Isn't Black and White
Rating mach eskalye glisad let your audience rate statements or questions on a sliding scale (like 1-10 or 1-5) instead of forcing them into yes/no answers. Think of it like a digital thermometer for opinions—you can measure not just whether people agree or disagree, but how strongly they feel about it. Think of it like a digital thermometer for opinions—you can measure not just whether people agree or disagree, but how strongly they feel about it.
Why use rating scales instead of regular polls? Because real life isn't multiple choice. You know that frustrating feeling when a survey forces you to pick "yes" or "no", but your honest answer is "well, it depends"? Rating scales fix exactly that problem. Instead of backing people into corners, you let them show you exactly where they stand on the spectrum.
Rating balans are perfect for anything remotely controversial or nuanced. For example, when you give a statement: "Team meeting helps me do my job better" and instead of a poll giving only two options: Yes or No, which immediately divides the room into opposing camps, you can ask people to rate "Team meetings help me do my job better" from 1-10. This way, you can see a bigger picture: People who are not sure if they agree with the statement or not, using a rating scale, help reflect the way they're thinking.
3. Spinner Wheel - The Ultimate Fairness Tool
Spinner wheel is a digital wheel that you can fill with names, topics, or options, then spin to make random selections. You may find this similar to a live game show wheel that you've seen on TV.
Why is this the "ultimate fairness tool"? Because nobody can argue with random selection—the wheel doesn't play favorites, doesn't have unconscious bias, and eliminates any perception of unfairness.
Spinner wheel is perfect for any situation where you need random selection: choosing who goes first, picking teams, selecting topics to discuss, or calling on participants for activities. It's also great as an icebreaker or energy booster when attention starts flagging.
4. Categorise - Sort Information Into Clear Groups
The categorise quiz lets your audience put items into different categories. Think of it as a digital sorting activity where participants organise information by grouping related items together.
Present your audience with a collection of items and several category labels. Participants put each item into the category where they think it belongs. You can see their responses in real-time and reveal the correct answers when ready.
This feature is absolutely perfect for educators teaching classification lessons, corporate trainers facilitating brainstorming sessions, HR professionals organising employee feedback, meeting facilitators grouping discussion points, and team leaders conducting sorting activities.
Use Categorise when you need to help people understand relationships between different pieces of information, organise complex topics into manageable groups, or check if your audience can correctly classify concepts you've taught them.
5. Embed Slide - Captivate Your Audience
Jounal Embed Slide feature in AhaSlides allows users to integrate external content directly into their presentations. This feature is available to all AhaSlides users who want to enhance their slides with live content such as media, tools, or websites.
Whether you're looking to add a YouTube video, a newspaper article, a blog, etc., this feature makes it easy to integrate everything without switching between apps.
It’s perfect when you want to keep your audience engaged by showing real-time content or media. To use it, just create a new slide, choose "Embed," and paste the embed code or URL of the content you want to display. It’s a simple way to make your presentations more dynamic and interactive, all in one place.
Tip 2 💡 Alternate Content and Interactive Slides
Look, we started AhaSlides back in 2019 because we were frustrated with boring, one-way presentations. You know the kind – where everyone just sits there zoning out while someone clicks through slide after slide.
But here's the thing we learned: you can actually have too much of a good thing. If you're constantly asking your audience to vote, answer questions, or participate in activities, they'll get exhausted and miss your main points.
Whether you're presenting to colleagues in a meeting room, students in a classroom, or attendees at a conference, the sweet spot is mixing it up with two types of slides:
Kontni glisad do the heavy lifting – they're your headings, bullet points, images, videos, that sort of thing. People just absorb the information without having to do anything. Use these when you need to deliver key information or give your audience a breather.
Glisad entèaktif are where the magic happens – polls, open questions, Q&As, quizzes. These need your audience to actually jump in and participate. Save these for moments when you want to check understanding, gather opinions, or re-energise the room.
How do you get the balance right? Start with your core message, then sprinkle in interactive elements every 3-5 minutes to keep people engaged without overwhelming them. The goal is to keep your audience mentally present throughout your entire presentation, not just during the fun parts.
Take a look at the video below. The interactive slides are spaced nicely between the content slides. Using content slides in this way means that the audience gets a breather in between the sections where they participate. This way, people stay engaged throughout your entire presentation instead of burning out halfway through.
Prezantasyon Protip 👊 Eseye evite itilize yon glise kontni pou tout bagay ke ou vle di nan prezantasyon ou an. Lekti dirèkteman nan ekran an vle di prezantatè a pa ofri okenn kontak zye e pa gen langaj kò, ki mennen nan odyans lan ap anwiye, vit.
Tip 3 💡 Make the Background Beautiful
Li fasil pou konsantre tout atansyon ou sou glisad entèaktif yo sou premye prezantasyon ou, epi petèt neglije enpak vizyèl an jeneral.
aktyèlman, estetik yo angajman tou.
Èske w gen yon background gwo ak koulè a dwa ak vizibilite ka fè yon kantite lajan etone pou ogmante angajman nan prezantasyon ou. Complimenting yon glise entèaktif ak yon seri supèrb fè pou yon pi konplè, prezantasyon pwofesyonèl.
Ou ka kòmanse swa pa telechaje yon background nan dosye ou oswa chwazi youn nan imaj entegre ak bibliyotèk GIF AhaSlides. Premyèman, chwazi imaj la epi koupe li jan ou renmen.
Apre sa, chwazi koulè ou ak vizibilite. Se ou menm chwa koulè a, men ou ta dwe asire w ke vizibilite background toujou ba. Bèl orijin yo gwo, men si ou pa ka li mo yo devan yo, yo fè to angajman ou plis mal pase byen.
Tcheke egzanp sa yo 👇 Prezantasyon sa a itilize menm background nan tout kote, men altène koulè atravè glisad depann sou kategori glise sa a. Glisad kontni gen yon kouvri ble ak tèks blan, pandan y ap glisad entèaktif gen yon kouvri blan ak tèks nwa.
Anvan ou te etabli sou background final ou, ou ta dwe tcheke ki jan li pral gade sou aparèy mobil patisipan ou yo. Klike sou bouton ki make 'wè patisipan' yo wè ki jan li sanble sou yon ekran plis etwat.
Tip 4 💡 Play Games!
Se pa tout prezantasyon, asire w, men sètènman pi prezantasyon ka anime ak yon jwèt oswa de.
- Yo ap memorab - Sijè prezantasyon an, prezante atravè yon jwèt, pral rete pi lontan nan lespri patisipan yo.
