I have reviewed two presentation
tools. The following is a summary of each of the tools I selected.
The first presentation tool I reviewed is Prezentit. I liked
the looks of Prezentit right away.
What I liked most about Prezentit:
* The site is very user friendly. To add a new slide you just push
the plus sign.
*Team members can work on the presentation simultaneously
* You do not have to have an Internet connection to download your
presentation
What I did not like about Prezenit:
*The site is limited, no music or video capabilities
* I only saw ten fonts to use for presentations
The next presentation tool I reviewed is Animoto
*What I liked most about Animoto:
*The graphics are high quality
*You can upload music and videos
*You can download your presentation to a DVD, Facebook or email
*There is a video tutorial to help you create your video
What I did not like about Animoto:
*It cost 5 dollars a month or 30 dollars a year if you want to
create a full
Length video
*Free videos are only 30 seconds
I agree that having the ability to add videos and music would be nice! My students LOVE music and it is a motivating tool to use... combining music with technology not only would be fun to create but also would make for more interesting presentations for the viewers of our Prezi presentations.
ReplyDeleteI think that adding video clips would be very useful as well because students could show their activities or labs in action. However, I do think it is an interesting and useful tool overall.
Cheryl,
ReplyDeleteWhich presentation tool did you end up going with? I ended up going with Prezi, and I really like it. I haven't tried to add music yet, only because I'm trying to learn it. Thanks for your information on Presentit. I will look at that one, too.

Hi Janie, I went with Prezi. I first, I did not like it. However, the more I used it, the more I liked it. I wish I could start my project over. I feel now that I could be even more creative and add more visual impact.
