Prezi
Prezi is a web-based presentation application that uses a single canvas, as opposed to the more traditional use of slides. Text, images, videos and more can be placed on the indefinite canvas. The canvas allows users to create non-linear presentations, where users can zoom in and out of a visual map. The finished presentation can be downloaded so that no internet connection is needed. There are three levels of licence: Free, Enjoy, and Pro. Typically Enjoy and Pro are free for the first 30 days, then a fee must be paid. With a .edu email, students and teachers can get the “Enjoy” level for free indefinetly.
