Using Prezi to create dynamic presentations of complex information

Powerpoint can show a diagram, but some diagrams are complex and contain levels of detail

Using Prezi you can present complex images and ideas and then zoom in and out of these to help students, see the relationship, the levels or simply be able to see the information from the back of the room.

Here is a demo

There are some issues

1.     make sure the image is large enough to zoom into, you will need something like 1000 pixels across

2.     prezi is a free service, but you do have to sign up

3.     you have to create them online unless you pay for a full service

4.     prezi does take a little while to get to know

Here is the most basic how to guide to creating a prezi zoom in presentation
