EDIM 510 - Prezi Discovery

Prezi is a new form a communication enhanced by collaborative technology.  This website allows the producer to aggregate different formats of resources into one interactive poster.  This poster can be easily published and shared with others.  The Prezi presentation format supports the disciplined mind by allowing them to choose how they spend their time and also allows them to show what they know in a variety of formats.  As a teacher, for a Prezi project, students would have to have a certain number of slides with specific content on them.  This would help focus the disciplined mind to concentrate on content that is important.  Prezis connects the disciplined mind to the synthesizing mind by the overall format of a mind map and flow that is created.  The mind that synthesizes is one that can collect information, sort relevant resources, digest them, and be able to create connections.  Students can easily collect resources, integrate, and display them through the online creator. Prezis naturally create connections through the templates and animations and are just as easy to alter to create content areas and connections.  Prezis are an easy way to integrate project based learning into many of the content areas and easily create a product.  They are fun to make and interesting to watch!
