For the last two classes we were assigned to make a presentation in a program named Prezi. The presentation was about our next five years of life and we had to represent our goals using Prezi techniques, such as the path, images, lines, etc. At the end, I really liked Prezi because it is far better than the normal PowerPoint. I really liked that we could move the screen, zoom in and out, include shapes & lines, and even create a path for a chronological presentation! It is really simple to use. Also, a Prezi is more interesting than a PowerPoint because you can create your own personal way to present it instead of just slide after slide. I think Prezi is a revolutionary program that will help everyone to make a %1000 better presentation.
Prezi resulted very easy to work with it because in the beginning they offer a tutorial video to know what Prezi is and how its functions work. After that I just needed to get used to it and then I totally understood. I think that the hardest thing that I tried to do was to put a number into another one and repeat that action for at least three more times. Unfortunately
, there wasn't enough zoom for all those actions, so I had to change my idea. If I get the option to work with Prezi or PowerPoint I wouldn't know what I would choose because both have good qualities and bad qualities. For example, I always have had a difficulty to get good ideas for
presentations and stuff like that, so when I try to create a Prezi is more complicated than a simple PowerPoint. The PowerPoint already has the simple format of slide by slide, so that always help me to get organized and develop my ideas. In conclusion I really wouldn't know what program I would choose because both have their own pros and cons.
