Prezi Next: The First Full-Cycle Presentation Tool

Prezi Next: The First Full-Cycle Presentation Tool | Into the Driver's Seat | Scoop.it
In 2009, we were a small company introducing a big idea: that presentations didn’t have to look or behave the way we were used to.

Dean Searle's curator insight, June 4, 2017 5:36 AM

Great tool to use in the classroom to present lessons and concepts to students.

When this is done by the students, it is reflective of the redefinition as per the SAMR Model. This is because students are using new media and places to store their work, and then also collaborating with their fellow students, but also other stakeholders in education.

There are two ways how you can add a video to your Prezi. 1) you can insert a link to a YouTube video or 2) you can embed a video into your presentation. The article describes the advantages and drawbacks of both ways.

Prezi lands $14 million to save us from death by Powerpoint

Prezi lands $14 million to save us from death by Powerpoint | Into the Driver's Seat | Scoop.it

Zooming presentation tool Prezi just landed an investment of $14 million from Accel Partners and previous Danish investors Sunstone Capital. Prezi is one of those rare startups which actually has revenue. The company has been cash flow positive since 2010.

 

Known primarily for its online presentation software, Prezi also offers Prezi Desktop for offline editing, PreziMeeting for real-time collaboration, and the Prezi Viewer iPad app.

 

Prezi will use the new funding to accelerate growth (The company expects to double in size in the next year) and get Prezi on to more devices. Demand is increasing in Europe and Asia, in particular, so Prezi will also use some of the cash to adapt the product to local markets.
