Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 7:47 pm

There’s no doubt that Canva is a powerful design tool. But can you make Canva presentations interactive?

The short answer is yes! With a little creativity and know-how, you can turn your Canva presentations into interactive masterpieces. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

1. Add Links to External Resources

If you’re including links to external resources in your presentation, why not make them clickable? That way, your audience can easily access the information you’re referencing.

To do this, simply select the text box or shape that contains your link, then click on the link icon in the top menu bar. Enter the URL of the resource you want to link to, then hit “Apply.” Your link will now be live and clickable!

2. Use Animation and Transitions

Adding animation and transitions can really bring your presentation to life and help keep your audience engaged. To add an animation or transition, simply click on the object you want to animate, then select “Animate” from the top menu bar. From there, you can choose from a variety of different animations and transitions.

3. Include Videos and GIFs

Videos and GIFs are a great way to add some visual interest to your presentation. To add a video or GIF, simply click on the “Uploads” tab in the left sidebar, then select “Video” or “GIF” from the drop-down menu. You can then upload a video or GIF from your computer, or choose one from Canva’s library of free videos and GIFs.

4. Use Interactive Elements

Canva offers a variety of interactive elements that you can use to make your presentation more engaging. For example, you can add a poll or quiz to collect feedback from your audience, or use an embeddable chat widget to encourage conversation. To add an interactive element, simply click on the “Interactive” tab in the left sidebar, then select the element you want to use.

Conclusion:

Canva is a powerful design tool that allows users to create beautiful visuals for their presentations. With a little creativity and know-how, users can also make their Canva presentations interactive by adding links, animations, transitions, videos, GIFs, and interactive elements.

PRO TIP: Canva presentations are not interactive. If you try to make them interactive, you may experience problems with your presentation not working correctly.
