  18. What is it? http://prezi.com/

  19. What is it? A non-linear way to present ideas. Creates a “zooming” presentation. http://prezi.com/

  20. Why use it?

  21. Why use it? Visual representations help students recognize how related topics connect (NCTM, 2000)

  22. Why use it? Learners acquire and store knowledge in two primary ways: linguistic (reading or hearing), and non-linguistic (visual imagery, kinesthetic). The more students use both systems of representing knowledge, the better they are able to thinking about and recall what they have learned (Marzano, Pickering & Pollock, 2001)

  23. What can we do with it in the classroom?

  24. What can we do with it in the classroom? Student can build up a Prezi through the course of a topic. Jot down key ideas, vocabulary and events. http://prezi.com/heta0c8btjcb/8d-group-f/

  25. What can we do with it in the classroom? Use Prezi for mind-mapping activities. http://prezi.com/88wv5es9moqa/kinetic-theory-mind-map/

  26. What can we do with it in the classroom? Create a subject-specific dictionary with images, links and/or video.

  27. What can we do with it in the classroom? Create graphic organizers. http://prezi.com/yehexjncx9a0/making-assignments-prezilicious/

  28. What can we do with it in the classroom? As a teaching tool. Example: Use an image from history. Zoom in to a particular spot and have students ask questions about the image. Gradually reveal the rest of the image.

  29. What can it do?

  30. What can we do with it?

  31. Getting started… • You will need to sign up for an account before you can create. You can view prezi’s without an account.

  32. Getting started…

  33. Getting started… Create hierarchy with size. Jot down key ideas anywhere on the canvas. Use “Frames” to group ideas. Use a “path” to give direction to your ideas.

  34. Getting started… Easily upload images from your computer or insert images from websites. Insert graphic organizers or create your own with the shape tool. Embed YouTube videos

  35. Getting started… Frames allow you to group ideas. You can also frame a particular area on an image so you can zoom in to that spot.

  36. Getting started… Create a path to set the order of your presentation.

  37. Getting started… Press the play button to “play” your presentation. You can manually zoom into an object during your presentation by clicking on it.
