The zooming presentation tool Prezi
is a very divisive alternative to PowerPoint. Prezi's 40 million users
have created MANY bad presentations since it launched in 2009, and for
that reason it has a bad rep in some circles - poorly made Prezis make
the audience feel motion-sick, and even really well made Prezis are
sometimes more about the tool and the presenter than they are about the
content and the audience. Conversely some people LOVE it: "I just use
Prezi for everything" is a phrase you hear sometimes, which personally I
view as a mistake.
So here are some good uses for Prezi in the academic library:
1. Interactive Maps of the Library
My favourite use for Prezi is take something static, and make it dynamic. You can stretch any image as large as you want (as long as it's not a low-res image) and make it the background to your entire presentation, then add points of interaction with that image.*** post continues on ned-potter.com ***
