All about the Prezi

Hello ladies and gentlemen,

First off I would like to say a congratulations for making it to the end of the Spring 2013 semester for all my fellow students, and another congratulations to all the graduates. This week I would like to talk to you all about my personal favorite Web 2.0 tool that I have learned about over the past semester.
While Web 2.0 has several tools that can enrich your personal learning as well as a students learning, I have realized that I enjoy Prezi the most.

This unique website is very similar to using the traditional PowerPoint, but instead of basic designs, layouts, colors, etc. it offers you endless option choices to spice-up a presentation. You can literally create a "PowerPoint" from scratch and add different animations to make it more interesting for the students to watch. Of course Prezi has generic layouts and colors you could use but on the opposite end you can create your own layouts and color schemes. The navigation is fairly simple, for me I just went into the system and played around with the different mechanics of the site.



I had the opportunity to actually create my own Prezi presentation, and I must say that I loved every second of it. I was able to create a fun and interesting Prezi that received many great reviews from my current professors. I was extremely proud of my understanding of the site and overall presentation that I shared it with any professor, student, friend, peer, etc. that would listen. Since learning about Prezi and all that if can offer individuals I can honestly say that I plan to use it in the future. I would like to encourage you to create an account or just browse the website yourself. It is just another creative tool that can enhance any presentation you may come across. If you do not like Prezi, then what Web 2.0 tool do you like the most? How do you plan to incorporate technology in your current or future classroom? If you are not a teacher or education major could you see yourself using any Web 2.0 tool at all in your profession?

Until next time darlings,

April N. Avery

  1. I wrote my blog about the entire class and the web 2.0 experience. But, one thing that was highlighted was my undying love for PREZI! That was my favorite project and I can't wait to use it again.
