Best of all, because Prezi tosses out slides in favor of a single canvas, creators are encouraged to think in terms of groupings and hierarchies. So your presentation becomes a visual [concept] map, allowing you to move through the content in a way that best tells your story! And because of the relational nature of the elements in the Prezi, grouped by category and assigned larger (or smaller) sizes as necessary for the logic of the content, presentations appear to audiences as more comprehensible and visually interesting. Prezi lets you see the big picture, and then zoom in to discover the details. Even the ne print. Or you can take a step back to discover the big picture. Because sometimes you just really need to turn Learning upside down to see it in a new light. And to remind ourselves that learners acquire knowledge in two ways: linguistically, by reading or hearing lectures, and non-linguistically, through visual imagery like this. Fortunately, technology like Prezi is helping us to expand beyond linear, text-based learning and to engage students who learn best in other ways. So what are you waiting for?
