Canva is one of the most powerful apps for academic work

[justseyi]

But many academics don’t know about it.

Here’s a latest Canva feature that will make your work simpler and

life easier…(way easier): 

Go to canva(dot)com and create an account, if you don’t have one already.

On the Canva homepage, you will see “Docs.”

Click on it, and then on “Start Writing.”

Canva will open a blank document.

Start writing about whatever project you are working on — presentation, seminar, journal article, etc.

You can use the taskbar on the left to add photos, videos, and other elements.

Now if you want to present your work-in-progress at a seminar or a conference you don’t have to spend time on creating a presentation.

Just go to the top-right corner and click on “Convert.”

Canva will instantly convert your document into a presentation — with slides and everything.

You can also choose a design. 

And viola, your presentation is ready.

Now if you want to look at all the slides in your presentation, click on the small “Grid view” button in the bottom-right of your screen.

Canva will show you all the slides in your presentation.

You can change the order of the slides here if you want to.

You don’t have to download your presentation to present.

You can present from within Canva.

To do so, click on the “Full Screen” button in the bottom-right corner of your screen.

And Canva will start your slide show.

You can also record your presentation in Canva.

To record, click on the “Present” button in the top-right corner and then “Present and record.”

You can also create a PDF of your presentation.

To do so, click on the “Share” button in the top-right corner and then on “Download.”
