Powerpoint definitely has its place in the classroom. It is a great presentation tool and is widely used. But sometimes you need to just change it up a little. Prezi is a great way to add a little wow factor to your presentations. The difference between Prezi and Powerpoint is not easy to explain - but I'll try. Prezi does not use the standard linear slide approach. Instead, it gives you a blank slate that allows you to input text, pictures, video, etc., and you can zoom in on each element in whatever order you choose to present. Instead of trying to explain it too much, play with the example below to see an example of a Prezi that I created. You can sign up to use Prezi for free with an email address at Prezi.com - you have up to 100mb of storage with a free account. It also has very easy beginner training steps to help you understand how to use it. When you sign in, you will see the library of presentations that you have created. The nice thing is that you can also download a Prezi presentation so that you do no need to be connected to prezi.com in order to show your presentation.
