What a cool application! As usual, it takes me a bit of time to figure out which 'buttons' to push to make things happen, but this is how we learn.
This will be a great tool to show my students for use in their content courses to use for long-term projects. I will use this as an option to wrap up our novels next quarter, for my students' projects.
We are planning parent workshops to help parents better help their kids at home regarding homework, study skills and organizational strategies. This would be a great tool for parents to know how to access so they could easily help their kids with projects, especially when their son or daughter says the night before, "I need posterboard for a project due tomorrow!"
Who needs posterboard when you can use this!!!! This is almost interactive. The movement alone would engage the viewer, wondering what is happening next. A powerpoint is pretty much stand-alone and very much the same thing over and over again. The Prezi opens a whole new world of creative demonstration of knowledge for the student.
This will also be a great workshop for my fellow faculty members. I'm betting there are quite a few that don't know about it but would love to use it.
This lesson applies to Standard #3 in that teachers can have a greater working knowledge of this type of technology to share with their students. It will inspire student learning, Standard #2, because it will allow students to use some imagination to create promising presentations through the use of this technology.
