Teaching Tip of the Day - Prezi Presentations

Within the last month, I was introduced to a free, phenomenal, educational resource called Prezi.com.  Prezi is like a more interactive and engaging PowerPoint program.  In the beginning, a large picture is presented to the audience and each slide is hidden within the larger picture.  To get to each new slide, the presentation keeps zooming in and around the "larger picture."  In order to see what I mean, please look at my first Prezi presentation on MLA format: here.

Positive

• Students are more engaged with this new program and are waiting to see where the picture will take them next.
• Presentation is on the internet and is available for students whenever they need to refer back to the information.

Negative

• Teachers may already have presentations available and saved in PP form.  
• Also, this program isn't as user friendly when it comes to saving on the computer. (It takes a little longer).  You have to save the presentation as a pdf file so you can print the slides.

What do you think of this program? Have you used it before?  Will you take the time to transfer your presentations to this format?
