Even though class was cancelled, my roommate and I went to the computer lab during our regular class time to get a head start on some of the work assigned for this week before spring break. Although I have never actually made a Prezi presentation myself, I always thought they were pretty cool when other people would present them in my classes. However, even though I still think their appearance is appealing I often found myself getting frustrated while working on the presentations assigned for class. Personally, I am a rather simplistic person and I think this is why I would favor PowerPoint over Prezi not only when making them myself but when learning from them as well. The Prezi process is rather complicated and very time consuming where as you can make just as attractive of a presentation using PowerPoint in a much shorter amount of time.
However, although I do not favor Prezi presentations, I feel as though my students would. Considering I would like to teach younger students I feel as though they would be more excited about following a moving, Prezi presentation then following slides on a PowerPoint. However, similar to what I stated before I feel as though high school or college students would prefer PowerPoint slides because the information they need is easier to follow.
