How to Use Prezis
Jason van Cassell is doing an in-service for social studies teachers tomorrow on how to use Prezi. Prezis are a cool alternative to PowerPoints. I like them best as they force the creator to think about a more enticing PowerPoint that can add items such as video, documents, pdfs, pictures and do some interesting maneuvers.
