Week 5 - Prezi

Please view my Prezi presentation below.



I will admit that after viewing an example of Prezi used for an assessment task in this week's tutorial, I was nervous to use it for the first time because of how content-filled it can be. It took quite a while to load, I felt the layout was confusing and it could easily flip back and forth as it liked - not a nice, simple and organised way to present information. Well, I was wrong! I used one of the templates available and did a simple presentation of my university journey.

This tool would be great to use in the classroom because it is so simple and easy to use (much to my surprise!), but it has the ability to be as advanced as the user's skills allow it to be. A teacher could place activities, questions and resources into a Prezi for students to access online for an engaging and exciting lesson. Alternatively, the cool zooming transitions between slides gives a modern spin on traditional slideshows.
