BP8_Prezi

In 1984 the world was introduced to PowerPoint. In May of this year I learned the wonders of iMovie and today I will introduce Prezi to my readers.

We will start with this: Have you ever assigned a project to your students only to hear that they do not have PowerPoint at home? Well, those days are over. Prezi is a dynamic open source tool that allows the user to create presentations simliar to PowerPoint but the catch is that everything is housed on one page. I am sure this may sound cluttered to some of you but I assure you that Prezi will make your presentation easy to create and share on or offline.

Prezi allows the user to insert text, pictures and video to share information. Additionally, these items can all be rotated and resized. You determine the path, rather the order in which you want to show your video and viola, your Prezi is complete. Watch the video below to see how easy it is to present and publish in Prezi.

When you visit the Prezi website, you'll find step-by-step tutorials to help you create your masterpiece. So, why are you still on Ttwit? Get started today!

  1. I LOVE this! The problem with my students was always that they used open office and then it would not convert to the computers at school, making presentations really frustrating! I love that this is a better option because now there is no excuse! Microsoft tools is considerably expensive for students to buy especially for school. This seems like a viable option for students who can't afford it :)
