#2 - Presentation Tools & Screencasting Tools

 1. Describe the Presentation Tool or Screencasting Tool you used.  Provide a link to the website. 

  Prezi is a cloud based presentation software and storytelling tool for presenting ideas on a virtual canvas. This program opens up a new world between whiteboards and slides.  We can say goodbye to boring slides and set our best ideas for free.

2. Describe the presentation or activity you created using the tool.  Provide a link to the location of your embedded presentation on your Google Site.   I made a presentation using prezi, the title is "the merits of traveling abroad" that suggests 3benefits of traveling together with pictures and a youtube video. If the sutdents view this, they can get a motivation on the reason of studying and going on a trip to other country.

3. Describe your experience using the tool.  Would you recommend it to other teachers?  Why or why not?

 To be honest, this is quite an amazing presentation tool. It gives huge amount of flashes. When I made a presentation, it usually took a long time to make it but not with Prezi. It has many forms of presentation so I can choose whatever I want and add frames as well. Furthermore, Prezi is a web based, which means you can access to the file anywhere, anytime if you have an access to the internet.

 4.  Describe potential uses the tool could have in the Korean EFL learning context.

  When people saw the prezi at  first, they were often focused on it because of its brillant visual. I think it is the same with the students. The students can  easily concentrate on  class with prezi. Also, most of the classes have computers and can access to internet freely. If a teacher opens a Google site and links to a site, students could look over them and share freely to others. It doesn't take long time which is the benefit for the teachers. Even though the teacher who doesn't have good computer skills will not have a hard time handling this tool, the  prezi.
