To get an idea of the theory behind Prezi, check out this Prezi below! (Pretty cool that you can embed it into a blog, right?!) If you want to learn how to embed a Prezi on your blog, check out Peter Pappas' explanation on his blog.
Copy of About perspective... on Prezi
Now that you have an idea of how it works, you can sign up at www.prezi.com. If you have a school e-mail address, you can access an upgrade in Prezi that allows you to create student accounts as well!
After checking out Prezi, do you think there is a chance PowerPoint might become extinct?!

This is an interesting site and a great alternative to PowerPoint. I believe kids will love the animation and other things that this software offers. As far as PowerPoint becoming extinct? I believe with this software PowerPoint will up what it does. I look at how many other software programs seem to 'outdo' PowerPoint and offer much more (www.presentermedia.com) for example which allows for animated graphics, templates, etc. Yes you have to purchase this one, but it is a great site. I think as more programs come out the ones that are staples will either up there game or just disappear. What will PowerPoint do? Time will only tell.
ReplyDeletePowerPoint extinct? Not if Microsoft has a say! I have had my students use Prezi in the past. I have tried it also, but tried to do too much too soon and confused myself.
