Prezi Examples
Great Example Prezi
This Prezi is my favorite because it tells a simple story with simple text and pictures, then zooms out to show how all the little points add up to the big overall idea. Again-when you think about telling your story, think about metaphor and how the little points your making add up to a bigger idea!
Both Good and Bad Prezi
Look at this Prezi and analyze when it works well and when there is too much text to be effective.
Remember-short bullets, not much text, don't ramble, keep points clear
