Use tools like PowerPoint to create, organize, deliver, and update presentations with images, links, videos, and more. They can be very effective when used well, but you’ll want to mix them with other strategies.
Prezi – create a canvas of text, videos, and visuals. Follow a path among the items and Prezi zooms in on each one in turn.
Google Slides – multiple people can edit at one time. Easy to embed on a web page in Sakai.
SlideShare – post PowerPoints and integrate them into Sakai. Here’s an example from a workshop on Presentation Zen.
