This allows zooming and provides more context than a PowerPoint. There is a steeper learning curve to master this than PowerPoint, but it is well worth the effort if you want to give a presentation at your to your class, fellow teachers or at a conference. 

Sign up with an educational email - one that has .edu. in it, such as your Curtin email. You can create 5 free Prezis with it.

There will be tons of "How to videos" on Youtube, in Prezi and on Vimeo. If you find a really good one, place a link to it in the comments section.

Action! Put a link to a video you make, however short, in the comments. 

Enjoy!
