Course aims

Prezi is a web-based presentation application and

storytelling tool that uses a single canvas instead oftraditional slides. Text, images, video and otherpresentation objects are placed on the infinitecanvas and grouped together in frames. The canvas

allows users to create non-linear presentations,where they can zoom in and out of a visual map. Apath through different objects and frames can bedefined, representing the order of the information to

be presented. The presentation can be developed ina browser window, and then downloaded so that aninternet connection is not needed when showing thepresentation.
