My day has been spent finding my way around Prezi. This application came highly recommended to me so I abandoned my attempts with Tumblr and began exploring Prezi. My plan was to look through the Synchtube session notes from the Twittorial on Thursday 29th October, and present our thoughts/views using this application.
For quickness and ease of use I decided to use one of the templates on offer. I have spent 6 hours so far working on this. It’s amazing how much time it takes. I feel I’m now one with my chair, desk and laptop. And now I’ve hit a problem. I seem unable to link the presentation to my Lifestream. At the moment, I feel I take two steps forward and four back in any coursework I attempt to do. Progress is slow. There are a number of things I still need to do, such as add tags, and change appearance. I do have YouTube working and I may need to have another stab at Tumbr. I look in awe at the work my colleagues have done, and are doing; they seem to be such experts. I was reassured by Ania when she said she also faced problems at the beginning.
I’m adding the link to my World builder presentation in the hope that it’ll work in the blog’s published form. Just in case it doesn’t I’ll insert a screenshot to give a flavour of how the presentation looks. It’s by no means comprehensive, I’m still experimenting. In the meantime I shall continue to play around with it. I may even be able to resolve my problem.
Great World Builder Prezi grace; I’m with you on the romantic interpretation. She is definitely pleased to enter his world and the attention to detail that he puts into building it makes me feel like he is doing it especially for her. What an interesting idea though, to create a reality for someone. It makes me think about how we affect one anothers view of this (supposed) real reality when we do things for/to one another in RL.
Hi Daniel,
Just retrieved this, and your other reply, from spam!
Thanks for your comments. Now you know I wasn’t being rude in not acknowledging them before now.
I wish I had more time to spend finding my way around Prezi, it has a lot to offer.
Should have taken a poll to find percentage of romantics vs cynical (or sinister).
Hi Grace, you’ve given me hope! I feel quite “behind” in my tech savviness! I’ve been playing around with Prezi, too. My old dept chair used to use it a lot and I would sit there thinking I could do something with it but never got around to it. Now it all seems so much more important!
