Week 10: Prezi

This week is all about PREZI!

Before this course, I had used Prezi before but I hadn't had a chance to really explore and see all the program had to offer. I was also able to learn from the Prezi website how to create really effective presentations.

Challenges

My challenge using Prezi is that sometimes my mind is so stuck in PowerPoint mode that it is hard to think and create outside of the box. Or in this case the rectangle that is a PowerPoint slide. When I first starting using Prezi it was hard for me to create a "slide" because of the different shapes. However, referring back to Garr Reynolds I realized that it didn't matter what shape of the slide was, the content and visual on the slide is what matters.

Prezi Topic

This Prezi was actually done for another class I had taken, Principals of Management. I chose this topic (How to give effective feedback) because at that time I had recently been promoted to a manager at my current place of employment and I found the task of giving feedback to my employees daunting. I was able to not only teach my classmates how to give effective feedback, but throughout creating the presentation I was able to learn myself.
