Prezi Presentation

Students who choose to prepare a "Prezi" will find this link rather instructive. Check it out!

A Prezi instructional in less than 15 minutes

Both American Government and Intro to Psychology students may utilize this new and exciting presentation product during the Dead Week of school to either earn recovery-credit in Government, or Extra Credit for the Final Presentations in Psychology.

Some thoughts, though.

1. The presentation program may be time-intensive to learn, so be patient.
2. I have only been able to load music and video that are in Flash. You might need to learn Flash in order for take maximum potential with your presentation.
3.  I have not yet been able to load a .pdf file, but I have used .jpg for images with no problems.
4. Be careful with the use of the "path" feature so as not to make your audience "seasick". Motion sickness is a "known issue" with this presentation product.

For American Govt., you are to compose a Prezi on any chapter within Unit 5 - the Judicial Branch. Choose an area of interest that excites you and bring the information in our book alive with your presentation. Consider adding features for political dictionary, key concepts, and numerous images to your presentation. Also, you could include the CA content standard(s) for the chapter you are highlighting.

For Intro to Psychology - do something similar with the Chapter area of focus you have committed to. Include the major theme and utilize the Prezi area as though it is a GRAPHIC ORGANIZER.

Investigate the different areas of Prezi for other presentation ideas, and HAVE SOME FUN!!
