    Prezi is a web-based presentation tool using a map layout and zooming to show contextual relationships.

    Although Prezi is advertised as a presentation device, it works really well to graphically present information, so I prefer it as a graphic organizer. Prezi provides a medium to allow words to flow, enabling the user to zoom in to information "hidden" as a subcategory within the main points. This is a very exciting new program, which I have gladly paid a subscription for! There remain some gltiches in publishing, such as to wordpress, or from the desktop application.
  •  
    Prezi allows a user to create a presentation that encompasses many of the same features of programs like PowerPoint. However, the presentation style of the elements follows more of a mind map design rather than a linear slideshow. The presentation tool is housed online, can be access for free, and makes it easy to integrate various forms of multimedia. The tools available at Prezi are advantageous for developing stylish online presentations and for facilitating continued review of materials, non-linear formats for reasoning, and building connections among concepts. Prezi can promote both essential and generative processing by allowing users/viewers to independently explore and develop connections among concepts.
  •  
    *Create slide presenations on the web. *Prezi makes slide sharing much more powerful as you are able to zoom in on specific areas of a slide for emphasis.
  •  
    Create presentations online. Import PPT or Keynote slides. Up to 1G for free
  •  
    This online presentation software allows multiple users a blank canvas to create dynamic presentations. I chose it because you can import slides from a slide show or a PowerPoint presentation and use its animation capabilities to easily create a more visually appealing presentation.
  •  
    Prezi is an online presentation creation site. The site allows you to create presentation that zoom in and out, include imported items, and the show the presentation on or offline. The creative potential is placed in the hands of the learner. This site was chosen over the others because it offers more features.
  •  
    Use Prezi to create professional quality presentations. Create maps of texts, images, videos, PDFs, drawings and present in a nonlinear way. Reuse images or the content of entire slides from easy to use galleries. You can access them from any computer and collaborate on a centralized web document.
  •  
    * Brief description of Web site: A free cloud based presentation software that opens up a new world between whiteboards and slides and makes a presentation 'zoom.' *Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found: Besides the fact that this is a free resource, can create presentations to present online or offline, import various media (i.e. PowerPoint presentations, YouTube videos) into presentations, and collaborate in real time with other users.
  •  
    This is a great presentation tool, allowing user to create and share presentation online and offline. Prezi is one of the pest presentation tools I have found, as it allows the import of various multimedia materials, including PowerPoint slides, images, videos, pdf files. Also, it facilitates the creation of storylines using frames. The site also includes access to millions of prezis created by other users on various topics.
  •  
    Prezi (http://prezi.com/) allows the user to create a dynamic presentation using words, pictures, special relationships and movement to create an interactive presentation. Prezi's can be downloaded or saved on in the users account until the presentation. The user can also allow others to view their presentation or keep them private. Prezi is a free site in which interactive presentations are made possible. Prezi is much more dynamic than a PowerPoint presentation and as long as you have internet access you do not have to worry about the computer you are using having the same version of PowerPoint.
  •  
    This is an interesting take on PowerPoint. Presentations are organized by paths and an hierarchy of the size of the text entered.
  •  
    Unlike most presentation software, Prezi does a good job of organizing and sharing ideas, while drawing a clear connection between content. When explaining production elements it helps to be able to see the whole picture from script to distribution. Prezi offers the ability to focus on each part and zoom out to view the full picture.
  •  
    * Prezi is a web based presentation tool similar to PowerPoint slides, except with a non-linear format that makes it fun to create and present ideas along with making connections between them. Prezi is also a tool for demonstrating new information to enhance the learning process along with providing mobile sharing and collaborative resources.
    * I found Prezi to be better than other presentation websites because it is more effective at creating engaging presentations and works from any device with Internet browsing capabilities, which will enhance the possibilities for teachers in my workshop to utilize different mobile devices during my presentation.
  •  
    What it is: Prezi is an online presentation software that allows collaboration among multiple users to create unique multimedia presentations. Why it's better: Instead of a traditional slide presentation, Prezi provides a platform to create presentations that are as creative as each individual user. Images, sounds, videos, and text can all be mixed together to create the most effective presentation possible.
  •  
    Prezi is a presentation tool that can either be created online or offline. It offers collaboration among users and has zoom features to highlight information. Presentations can be viewed from a desktop, iPad, or iPhone. One way that Prezi can be used for essential learning is to segment a presentation to make it learner-paced. This website offers a better product for keeping learners engaged.

PowerPoint with a Learning Point - 1 views

  •  
    The topic of my multimedia workshop is on How to Utilize Multimedia to Create Effective Instructions. I plan to use PowerPoint as my multimedia artifact. In Jones (2005) article she establishes the fact that the technology of choice for most projects was PowerPoint. The main reasons for selecting PowerPoint for my multimedia project coincided with what was discussed in this article. PowerPoint is accessible and familiar to most educators and students. It is simple to use, can be created on desktop, visually stimulating, sounds or auditory stimulation can be added and can be use for cognitive abilities. In addition, PowerPoint has presentation versatility because it can be used as an original file, PDF format, and html format. It can also run with videos and have narration added. Finally, the software allows for interactivity. The focus of the multimedia workshop is to create a learner-centered approach to learning instead of a technology approach to learning; the software is used to facilitate this process (Jones 2005, p. 1). Mayer's (2008) active processing is when meaningful learning occurs and learners are engaged in the active cognitive processing during learning and instructors must figure out ways to prime the learners to pay attention to relevant material, and mentally organize the information and integrate the information based on their prior knowledge. The ability to actively process information can be associated students dynamic, collaborative and synergistic construction of significant knowledge within a multi-learning environment. Jones, D. (2009.). PowerPoint with a learning point.

    This site provides a PowerPoint presentation on how create the most appropriate question format for clickers. The website explains when in the lesson each type of question is most appropriate. The website provides various links that give the learner more information on each topic that pertains to incorporating student response devises in the classroom. The clickers allow for various types of question format. The instructor can choose to use true/false, multiple choice, numerical, and other various types of assessment check point tools to assess the understanding of the content. Furthermore, the website includes suggestions on using the clickers to prompt student conversation and engagement. The learner can develop a greater understanding from the instructions and information provided on this website. The PowerPoint presentation fits into Mayer's essential learning. Essential learning relates to a lack of understanding due to no previous knowledge on the given content. Several participants in the workshop may not understand which types of questions are appropriate for clickers; this PowerPoint will clarify and help pre-teach the material; thus, meeting Mayer's essential learning.

    Brief Description: Slide Share is a website where an individual can upload and share their presentations, personal/professional videos, and documents (word and pdf). Information uploaded can be shared with everyone on the website or restrictions (limited viewers) can be placed on your information.

    Slide Share is a place where you can create an free account and upload videos, PowerPoint presentations, documents, and more. Once your information is uploaded to Slide Share you can share your account with others. This could be a convenient to share multiple formats of information during a presentation with a group. It even has a feature where you can log in as a guest, eliminating the requirement for presentation attendants to create an account. Slide Share is an example of essential learning because it provides the participant with essential material that through their presentations will lead to their working memory.
  •  
    On this site, users are able to upload PowerPoint presentations, videos, Word, and PDF documents. They are also able to create webinar materials. I chose this site because of the I have had the opportunity to view videos and presentations and the past, and the quality of such material is excellent. The site is easy to use and free.
  •  
    Teachers who are familiar with the use of presentation software such as MS Power Point, may opt to use Slideshare to post and share their presentation. Again this a user-friendly tool, with ease of access for participants. The presentations in slideshare can also be embedded into a wiki, blog, or web page that will be used throughout the workshop.
  •  
    Slideshare is an online site that houses a wide variety of presentations, documents and videos. These resources can be uploaded and downloaded for easy sharing. It has a wide variety of presentations on a wide variety of subjects. Users must be cautious because there is no quality control. I had to look through a large number of presentations before I could find something that had both the content and quality for which I was searching. This site is a good resource for essential learning as it can provide new information in both auditory and visual forms to be processed into the working memory. I liked this site because of the quantity of presentations that are housed in one site. Presentations can be easily uploaded, shared, and embedded into sites.
  •  
    Slideshare http://www.slideshare.net/ This is a free site that can be used to upload a powerpoint presentation. This site develops a learner's essential knowledge of the presentation by allwong them to see and hear the presentation being presented. I chose this site becauce it is free and participants can access it from home or from any computer with internet access.
  •  
    Slideshare - Slideshare is a website that allows users to upload various types of presentations: documents, presentations, and professional videos. I like this site because it attempts to keep non-professional data off , unlike sites such as You Tube that is for general use. Setting up an account is easy and the basic membership is free, which is always nice.
  •  
    SlideShare is a tool that allows users to upload presentations or videos they have created to be shared with others. This site also allows users to search for presentations and videos on topics of interest. Having used this tool before, I have found it easy to use and can see how it might be used to share any presentations or videos created for the workshop with staff who were unable to attend or with a much broader audience.

    Presentations * Name of the site: OpenOffice.org * URL: http://download.openoffice.org/ * Brief description of what it allows you to do and how it can be used for essential or generative learning: This application seems to be a free version of PowerPoint with some different slide templates. Anyone who has used PowerPoint would be able to use this application. It might not look so run-of-the-mill as PP. * Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found (e.g., more effective, creates better products, easier to use, and so on).
