Huh Can't You Spell?
For my work as an office assistant this week, I was asked to research Prezi, a presentation tool that is seen as an alternative to PowerPoint, without the linear restrictions that Powerpoint has. After playing around with Prezi and making a very rough sample Prezi, I can say that the easiest comparison I can make for Prezi is a mix between Powerpoint and Inspiration.
Final Verdict:
After quite a few days of playing with this new tool, I've decided to reserve using Prezi for simpler presentations, like taxonomies or pyramids... things that could be very very dry to students. Prezi adds a great deal of flair, and ease to presentations, and teachers just need to make sure they do not add too much flair that it detracts from the main idea of their lesson.
Oh, and for added fun... Here's that rough Prezi I made as an experiment
