I’m working on gathering resources for our TLTC Summer Series day Stand Out in a Crowd – Effective Presentations to be held on June 30 and I came across this example of a Prezi created by Paul Hill. It is the best example of a Prezi I have seen that demonstrates how Prezi can be used for elearning or the face-2-face classroom.

Crazy Talk
This is an introduction to ORLD 5055 – Staff Development and Training I made this evening using Crazy Talk and an image of my Second Life avatar. Our challenge in this course at Teacher’s College has been to get students to try different, more creative approaches for their final project, a training module. This semester I thought I would use a variety of tools to cover areas in the course that students struggle with the hopes they will take a risk when it comes to producing their project. My Crazy Talk is a little rough around the edges however the course starts tomorrow and I wanted it to be available.

All Fired Up
Since I returned from the Savannah School of Art and Design story and the user experience have been on my mind. I have always known how important these concepts are in design and communication but they live and breath it there. What an amazing place and an inspiration to me personally. Typography, image, interaction are so very important but they are only the supporting actors. This week I explored some terrific elearning modules and graphics and I really looked at them in a whole different way … evaluating the story and interactive element. Could I identify it .. .what did it say?
There are so many design blogs out there but I came across http://mocoloco.com/art/ today. The horizontal scrolling is fresh and engaging. The difference from the norm encouranges exploration. It stuck me that we never see anything similar in an educational context. Wouldn’t this be an amazing way to present content?
