Magic Shortcuts: These are keyboard shortcuts you can use while presenting Canva slides to add timers, animations (like confetti or a mic drop!), and visual effects (like blurring or a curtain). This hack helps make presentations more interactive and dynamic.
Remote Control: This feature allows you to control your presentation slides from your phone or tablet. This gives you more freedom to move around the classroom while presenting and still utilize those magic shortcuts.
Editing PDFs: You can upload a PDF into Canva, edit the text, add or delete elements, and then re-export it as a PDF or image. This is helpful when you have a PDF that's not editable but needs some changes.
AI Integration: Canva has AI features like "Magic Write" (similar to ChatGPT) to help generate text for presentations or documents and "Magic Design" to create presentation slides based on a prompt. This can be a great starting point for creating lessons or brainstorming ideas.
Tidy Up Feature: This feature helps you quickly align and organize elements on your slides, saving you time and effort in arranging things manually.
