Prezi
I believe using the application of a prezi in a classroom environment would be an engaging prospect for my students. As a prezi is a different form of interactive teaching applications out there like the PowerPoint. I believe the prezi has the ability to engage students as you can use it to identify key words or points within a subject plus with a small synopsis of that key point or word below at the click of a button to evaluate on the subject. Prezis i believe have the potential to come into classrooms as students are looking for new ways of engaging follow students in topics and for getting their points across in presentations and assignments to facilitate their learning. For the new age teacher prezis are the new interactive teaching application and one what can be used for different purposes across different subjects to engage their students.

Nicely put Dave, I agree with everything you said. Prezi's really are to me the new powerpoint they seem so exciting to me, imagine what they could do in a classroom!
ReplyDeleteThe Prezi may have its place in some contexts, but for me the preferred tool in this genre is the powerpoint. With the Prezi, my fear is that its constant zooming aspect could be more distracting than engaging. If it were used to present a discussion on roller coasters and other such theme park rides I would agree. But, for the purposes of mainstream classroom presentations - by both LMs and learners - the all purpose Powerpoint would remain my choice over the Prezi.
