Out with the Old..

PowerPoint it widely used by teachers to present information. While it is a valuable software, it is now somewhat limited in what it can do and can get boring quickly. Think about it. You are sitting in a meeting and the presenter is droning on and on. Often they don't even know the etiquette of not simply reading every single item on each slide. But, regardless, the slides tick by and you are begging for the end. I found that especially with the students, they need more movement. Prezi (on online based presentation software) gives movement and much more. While I'm still thinking about the last post regarding Open House and my need to redo that presentation, I have posted for you a Prezi I created about myself. Simply click here to check it out or watch the intro video about Prezi below. I think you'll find that the program is easy to use and fun to interact with. It has endless uses. And, you guessed it, it's free for teachers. All you need is a email address  from an educational based website. Hope you start using it soon! I know my kids enjoy it.
