Prezi.com is easily my favorite web 2.0 tool. I have used it effectively in presentations. Below is a presentation I gave to the CTL Advisory group. I’m still investigating classroom uses. This week will be the unveiling.

That’s why it is imperative that districts and educators who advocate this new model of schooling are crystal clear as to what it looks like and how it will be different from our traditional perception of “online education”.
