PowerPoint or Prezi
Prezi is a free online service that you can use to create presentations as you normally would make in PowerPoint but more interactive and with a nice zooming effect. Instead of slides, Prezi is completely based in the idea of a visual map and path.
Then you can apply some path movements and changes to rotate the visual map and navigate to the next content. Here are some of the main differences of PowerPoint vs Prezi:
- Prezi is more interactive. With Prezi you can keep clicking the mouse or a key on your keyword to view each part of the presentation.
- Either in Prezi and PowerPoint you can insert videos, and any other media content in the presentation.
- Instead of slides as in PowerPoint, in Prezi you have a visual map where you put the presentation content
- The classic view of PowerPoint is not available in Prezi, although now you can import your PPT presentations into Prezi and convert PPT to Prezi file.
- Both have the idea of templates, while you can download free PowerPoint templates for PowerPoint presentations, there are Prezi templates for Prezi.
