Heather Stapleton, the Library Technician at St Joseph's College Geelong has created an excellent Prezi. She explains why she developed the Prezi:
"The Prezi has been created to support the Year 9 English unit on Science Fiction."
Have you heard of Prezi? Prezi is a free online program you can use to create presentations that are similar to powerpoints but more interactive. Here are some of the main differences with prezi: 1. It moves and is interactive.
A GREAT example of social media in action. Also a very good example of the power of Prezi. This would be great as a homework assignment prior to a lesson on social media and/or an example of a well constructed, web-based narrative. Students could analyze all the elements and evaluate the sources.
Prezi on Twitter for professional development: Participants will learn the basics of how to use Twitter as a Professional Development tool through learning what Twitter Chats are, how to find chat groups suited to their educational interests, and how to navigate and get the most out of Twitter Chat
What if every student (and educator) was a good online researcher? I know, you don't have the time to teach information fluency skills. What if you could get a significant advance is skills with just a 2 -3 hour time commitment?
Here's a great Prezi 'fly by" of the new Information Investigator 3.1 online self paced class. Watch the presentation carefully to find the link to a free code to take the class for evaluation purposes.
