    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.

    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.

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.

YouTube - how to - 0 views

  •  
    In line with the best practices of a multimedia presentation, YouTube has thousands of how to videos that can be embedded into power points. In fact there are several videos on how to embed into powerpoint. I have used these videos numerous times in my general ed classes and in my tech classes for both adults and children. With the tech classes the students watch the video through once, then reproduce the activity while watching it through again. It is rare that I have to reteach when they do this.
  •  
    Kal, I utilize United Streaming video segments in my classroom on a regular basis. Many teachers do not realize how easy it is to download them. I also use video for facilitating Professional Development. Video for students is much l like watching television - you have their "full" attention - they are totally engaged!

Animoto - 1 views

    Brief description of what it allows you to do and how it can be used for essential or generative learning: Animoto is a great presentation site for people like myself who aren't creatively inclined. It is easy to use and allows the user not to feel overwhelmed. The site incorporates text, visuals (pictures or videos), and sound. This meets generative learning. 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): Easy and not time consuming to use. The product looks very professional.

Kids Activities 1000's of ideas - 0 views

  •  
    As I continue to ponder the idea of community service and work place learning, I have come to the understanding that the project would serve students better than professionals. This site, http://www.kidactivities.net/, is fun and interactive dedicated to the learner and centered in engaging children through a variety of activities. The community service aspect of the site is full of behavioral activities, but in this case, learning is taking place as teachers can help students integrate their prior knowledge with information obtained. Though I continue to agree with the video in our module 1 resource related to methods not media; however, the media in this case will improve the methods used for a variety of students and styles of learning.

    This site is a great icebreaker to a new topic. It provides easy to understand basics on any topic that you might teach. I would encourage teachers to use the quiz program to assess what students already know at the start of the lesson.

    This is a free site that lets you import images to create a slide show or a quiz along with an mp3 file to embed in your web page, wiki or blog. I tried this at a professional development development conference and found it to be extremely user friendly and a cinch to put together. I like how I can create a quiz with images and text on a screen to ask a question or make a comment.
