Would you like to teach your students to do presentations that are exciting to make and view? Prezi is an online tool you can use to create, save and show presentations. In the words of Robin Wauters at TechCrunch, “Prezi is the coolest online presentation tool I’ve ever seen. It’s an entirely Flash-based app that lets you break away from the slide-by-slide approach of most presentations. Instead, it allows you to create non-linear presentations where you can zoom in and out of a visual map containing words, links, images, videos, etc.”
