HOW PREZI CAN MAKE SCHOOLWORK FUN!

Prezi is an excellent tool to make education much more fun for both teachers and students. Prezi can be used to make interactive presentations with gorgeous graphics that can hold the attention of students much longer and make the presentation-making process easier and more interesting for the educators. A prezi presentation is like a blackboard on which you can write or draw whatever you please and erase and add content as needed. There are no slides in it instead it is one large page on which you can zoom in and zoom out as the topic comes up. Along the way, you can also add interesting graphic and styles. Here are some reasons why prezi should be incorporated into the curriculum.

ENGAGING VISUALS: Prezi has a much wider variety of graphics with a much higher resolution to make your presentations much more interesting. Colorful and interactive presentations are much more likely to hold the attention of disinterested students that the routine ones. You can incorporate pictures, PDF files, and maps onto your presentation and zoom in and out making it feel a lot less like a presentation and more like a video.

COMPATIBLE WITH TECHNOLOGY: Prezi was made for use on Ipads and tablets. With the growth of paperless technology, a prezi presentation becomes much more relevant. You can use the simple touch screen features to make the presentation a lot easier.

EASY ACCESS: A prezi presentation is made on a web based application. This makes it much easier for students and teachers to share with each other. Students can send it to their teachers via email and teachers can send it back with the necessary corrections. Prezi is a great tool for Parent-Teacher interactions too. It can be used to convey important policies and student updates.

IMPORT EASILY: You can easily shift presentations seamlessly from Powerpoint to Prezi. So, in case you make a presentation on powerpoint, you can later shift it to Prezi to add the interactive features and improve your graphics.

STORY TIME: Prezi is a great addition to storytime for young learners. Instead of shifting the images from slide to slide, the teachers can use Prezi to tell a story through pictures.

BETTER PROJECTS: A prezi presentation is a great way to showcase individual and group projects. Not only is the making of the presentation much more fun for the student, but they can better convey the what they want to say. Since it can be shared with as many as 10 people at a time, it is a great software for group projects to bounce ideas back and forth.

FREE TO USE: If you log into the Prezi website with a valid school email ID, it is free to use. Prezi is very pro-education and gives a free education subscription to schools and students. Read More
