Assignment 6: Prezi Presentation


The sixth assignment that we were required to complete for this semester was use Prezi to create an online presentation. To successfully complete this assignment there were certain requirements that we had to meet. The minimum requirements for this assignment are as follows:

Create an online presentation using Prezi. Your Prezi presentation must have at least 12 slides with images and a YouTube video. Upon completion of your assignment, please embed your Perzi presentation (Width and Height as 440 x 320) here.
In addition, export your presentation to Portable Prezi for online viewing (Download option) and then burn it onto a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. Please change the filename of your zip file to your First and Last name (i.e., steveyuen.zip) before burning. Finally, bring your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM to the class on Nov 9.

This assignment was one of the most challenging. It was a challenge for two main reasons, which included me missing class and my lack of usage or previous knowledge regarding the software. Generally when I think of creating a presentation Power Point is always the way to go. So when it came to completing this assignment I was a little slower than normal. The topic that I chose to use was Breast Cancer. Inserting the text was fairly easy but arranging it on this screen was a definite problem for me. I had a problem inserting the YouTube video, but the tutorials were very helpful in getting me past that point. Though I finally figured out how to complete the assignment I wouldn’t call myself a professional. I definitely need more practice and feel that the software has great potential.

The completed assignment can be viewed below.

  1. I agree with you Prezi has a lot of potential. I like this better than I do PowerPoint. Great job and I like the topic.

  2. You really hit close to home with this one. I lost a very dear friend and family member to breast cancer. I found your presentation to be very informative. The statistics you provided with "need to know" facts were interesting. I did not know about the "other" imaging options. I knew there were probably other options but you provided me with the actual names of the other options. Excellent choice for a presentation.
