Power Point vs. Prezi

We were asked to watch a couple of videos about these two presentation generators and to make a comparison.

I'm posting here one of them because it is hilarious. It is about what NOT to do with a Power Point Presentation.

The thing is, you CAN use some of these features exaggeratedly if you want to make a point, specially if you use humour in your presentation. If we are talking about a formal presentation, in which you speak about a delicate subject, maybe it would be better if you follow Don McMillan advices.

Prezi, in contrast, has two significant advantages: you have endless space to work on (your work will not be reduced to a single slide) and you can make use of the zoom for highlighting information (for example: a part of a picture). Besides, you don't have to worry about the version of Microsoft Office that your learners may have in their netbooks because Prezi needs only a web browser and the Flash component installed (it's hard to find a computer without these two requirements). Not to mention that the animation Prezi offers is much more appealing.

Here you can learn about a couple of Prezi features.

Hope you like it.
See you around!
