Presentation Websites
Animoto
http://animoto.com/
Animoto is a presentation website that is useful in creating unique video segments from photos, video clips, and music. It also has capabilities for sharing your presentation. The use of this website is available for free with limited length of presentations. For extended lengths, price plans vary from $5 per month to $499 per year. I found this site to be better than some others because of its ease of use.

VUVOX is a sharing service that allows mixing and creating of presentations using video, photos, and music. I have never used this service, but after researching its capabilities. It appears to be easy to use and share very creatively put together presentations for personal, business, or education purposes.

Studenthandouts.com
http://www.studenthandouts.com/graphicorganizers.htm
Studenthandouts.com contains a collection of graphic organizers that are free and printable. The graphic organizer page has a small sample picture of all of the available organizers for print. I found this website to be useful for other resources, as well. It contains free interactive educational games and information to help with citations for research papers in MLA and APA.

Prezi is similar to PowerPoint except it does not present the information through slides, instead it presents information using zooming effects. Prezi can be used to motivate students to organize and show off information that they have learned. It can also be used by teachers to share information using multimedia capabilities. It is a visually appealing presentation software program that is available for free to anyone with internet access.

For pre-training, I would suggest the following two websites: Wikispaces.com and Bloggers.com. They are both great for providing and sharing information. I love them because they are easy to use and follow using an RSS feed. Audiences can leave comments and develop discussions about the information.
