TOPIC 1 INRODUCTION

Introduction to Prezi

Prezi is a Web 2.0 based presentation software that enables a non linear presentation of text
and visuals that we can zoom in and out of a visual map containing words, links, images, and
videos. The zoom feature in canvas makes it fun to explore ideas and the connections
between them. It is very similar to a power point, except we do not make slides. So instead of
slides, we create a large map and basically zoom around it while we do our presentation. It
produces a visually captivating presentation. We can show a Prezi to others on a computer
through our Prezi account, or we can link to them. We can also download the Prezi
presentation and embed them in blogs.

Prezi Features
