SCIE 6662S-2

The presentation tool Prezi.com is an exiting way to get slides into flash and moving. One of the limitations I always found when working with similar tools was that the only way to get all the goodies was to pay big. All the great features were available only to paying members. Prezi.com is different. Yes they do hay extras for extra money, but the free site is sufficient as to have th etools to built extraordinary presentations. One of the things I like about Prezi.com is the ability to create my own temple and not having to choose from the pre-selected list. Uploading fotos seems easy. Once uploaded, fotos can be sized, turned, labeled, and edited. Text writing options are very user-friendly. Onces completed one slide, you can continue uploading until your project is completes. As for previewing work and sharing it with colleagues, Prezi.com has awesome features that permit us to collaborate with others. When saving your work, you can share your work and include them as collaborators. You can add as many slides as possible. Setting the slides in the desired order is quite simple. It zooms into pictures and lets you manage these. I will continue to investigate several features I have encounter since then. This is an exciting media tool and esay to use. I had the opportunity to look at presentations using Prezi.com that our technology teacher had created. I also like the feature about the time. All slides, pictures, and notes interactions during a Prezi.com can be times as to our own saying. Prezi.com offers a wide range of tutorials that are quite explanatory. Another presentation tool I selected was the Google Presentation tool. In a way it is very similar to Prezi.com, but remember that Google presentation has more templates to choose from. Being Google, it does have some features I would like to see in Prezi.com. Also, Google presentation has a collaboration feature that can have upto ten people collaborating at the same time (prezi.com has this feature also). Google presentations lack tutorial videos. Prezi.com has more problem solving tools than Google Presentation. Also, the pictures can only fix at certain. I still favorite Prezi.com. As per my conversation with our technology teacher, he demonstrated great interest in helping me along. After viewing sevaral of our students work with Prezi.com, i dicided to get my class project in Prezi.com.
