Prezi

I found my first Prezi's a bit confusing to start with and it continued that way until I was nearly finished. I was lucky to have a professional development course running at my school about prezi's to teach me the ins and outs about them.

Positive	Minus	Interesting
-          Can insert pictures and videos -          Very customisable -          Very colourful if you want it to be -          Easy to use once you know where all the tool buttons are -                 Has many different  templates to help getting the right set out fast -                 Can go back and forward in the  show easily -                Very creativity and fun to make	Takes a long time to get used to                   The commands are in a circular pattern which makes it hard to follow, the graphic interface wasn’t user friendly                       On the free version overall compare to the paid version isn’t overly customisable                   There are only 3 different fonts per template.	Turns into a movie or a slide show very easily                       In build spell check                   Has online tutorials

Again I can find uses for prezi in both discipline areas. To me a prezi is like a powerpoint, you can present something to the class with it. for example with maths if I had given a group assignment and I ask them to present and I can give them the option to present with prezi instead of a powerpoint. I can replace the powerpoints in manual arts as well, the school that I am doing my placement at, they use powerpoints to as an assessment item  as portfolio to go along with their job cards, this shows their learning process. I think that a prezi is not overly nessiary to learning because there are differnet ways of doing what i would use it for but the students would have more fun and be more engaged if they don't have to use the same programs to show their  work.
