This
was actually my very first time creating an online presentation utilizing Prezi.
Before selecting Prezi as my 2.0 tool, I carefully reviewed the presentation options
within Glogster and Voki and determined that Prezi suited my needs the best of
the three sites. Upon becoming familiar with
the tools, I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to create a presentation.
The functionality is unique and quite slick, compared to that of PowerPoint. I have
not yet mastered the zoom functionality or learned to incorporate videos;
however, I can already see how useful the options available within the Prezi
canvas can be in communicating with classroom students. It is whiteboard and
iPad friendly, so the touch navigation this tool offers is great to excite and involve
students in interactive presentations. A teacher can zoom into a specific graph
or image to highlight a specific point and then can smoothly zoom back out to
continue the lesson.

Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed viewing your Prezi presentation. After reading your post, it is great to know that Prezi is iPad friendly and can be used in a multitude of different formats. It is always fun to add an interactive element to a presentation.
I agree that Prezi would be best suited for your situation. You may find that you need to give a presentation to a group and Prezi would look much more formal than a Glog.
Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your presentations. You do such a nice job bringing in information and color. When I reviewed Prezi I saw it was able to be used on the iPad and that was an interest to me. I chose Glogster but if I would do an online presentation for a business I would probably use Prezi. It offered more of a professional look.
Nice presentation.
