Below is a screenshot of my prezi zoomed out
I see prezi being a great alternative to powerpoint for several reasons. Reason number one is that Microsoft Office is not necessary to make one of these, so a greater number of students would be able to do this from home. At the beginning of each semester, I poll the kids on their technology availability outside of school and more kids have internet access than kids that have Microsoft Office.
The other big advantage I see to Prezi is that it forces students to make connections between topics in order to link it properly.
I see this as being a great presentation tool for the career project I do in my physical science class.
I did struggle with the part of getting a screen capture while using zoomit. What I did instead was use picasa to resize the image and zoom into a certain piece of it. I see zoomit as being extremely helpful for taking text & images from the web that I project on the screen and making them bigger and easier for students in the back and students w/ sight disabilities to see the screen.
