How do I make my presentation interactive?

How do I make my presentation interactive? Start simple. During your presentation, pause and ask your audience a real question. Not theoretical. An actual question they should answer. Launch Slideasy on your screen. Create a poll in 30 seconds. Your audience votes from their phones, laptops or tablets. They see results instantly. That's it. That's interactive.

Do this every 5-10 minutes. Don't talk for 30 minutes straight and then ask questions. Break it up. Ask, listen, adjust, move forward.

Use word clouds to let people brainstorm ideas together. Use Q&A so people ask questions anonymously. Use rating scales to measure what people think.

The key is: stop being the only voice. Make your audience part of the experience. When people participate, they pay attention.
