One day at school each one in our class had made a presentation for a technology project and I have used PowerPoint to present the project to the class. After I was done another person went and he had presented on different software it was called Prezi after his presentation I started thinking the two of the most popular presentation programs are Prezi and PowerPoint. Though these two programs have the dame purpose they have many differences.
PowerPoint is a great presenting tool and millions of people use it around the world for many types of things and it purchasable everywhere for only $60 for the latest version of it and no extended payment needed for it, while the online software Prezi has many of versions and a range of prices. Even though there is a version of Prezi that is free it is not exactly the full version of the online software there are three versions of it the one that I had just mentioned another version adding another 3 features to it now being priced $4.92 per month now it is a monthly payment that someone would have to afford all the time, then there is another version for $13.25 for only 2 more features and for a year that is a lot of money to pay for a program. The storage amount that comes with Prezi is not impressive in the defense of PowerPoint the storage of how much there is to hold which is based off of the price that, have to pay for the free version the storage amount is only 100MB for the tons of Prezi’s that go in there are going to do and that is not that much in the next version it raises it up to 500MB, the version after that is gone up to 2GB at the maximum amount. Instead of being limited in space in PowerPoint it has an unlimited amount of space based off of the actual computer space which ...

...ch for the website then login and wait this whole thing takes like 1-2 minutes that is a lot slower than PowerPoint which is an easy access program to use. In Prezi when up load a big or medium sized file or picture it will glitch and close the web page with it and that is bed because it might save or not and that is really frustrating if it happens to it also happens when have to many tabs on internet ribbon, this never occurs with PowerPoint program.
If would want to really do a great presentation with amazing and cool features and other things with it would should chose PowerPoint it is easy, fast, and has no trouble at all it is a great way to really make and design an amazing presentation with it than using the limited Prezi and how would have to pay a lot of money to buy a small product compare to PowerPoint when can get money’s worth and even more and more.

We begin with the analysis of the benefits of power point slides. The point of a power point slide is to accelerate information absorption by making a clean cut easy to read, very linear, presentation. The use of the power point system allows a better understanding of the conversation; you are able to easily differentiate between two speakers, you can easily understand who is speaking and in what order they spoke. Most of the conversations held in the reading are linear, beginning with Speaker A, and transitioning back and fourth between Speaker A and B as they argue or converse. You are not left wondering who is speaking at which point. There is a superb example of this on page 253 where Sasha is nagging Alison to write journals rather than make slides. As the reader you can easily navigate though the argument and understand who is speaking and what the argument is pertaining to.
My great-grandfather owned a business in the 1940s and conducted business solely through conversation, mail, and newspaper ads. My grandfather took over the family business in the 1960s and conducted business through conversation, mail, newspaper ads, projectors, and telephones. My uncle took over the family business in the late 1990s and now conducts business through conversation, mail, telephones, computers, internet, software, tablets, apps, and many other forms of technology. One form of technology dominant in all workplaces is PowerPoint. “Some 30 million [PowerPoint] presentations [occur] each day. It 's the second-most-used corporate communication tool after e-mail” (Wahl, 2003). PowerPoint has taken over the corporate world and has become a presenting tool almost all employees use. Sherry Turkle (2004) says PowerPoint is “developed to serve the needs of the corporate boardroom” (p.
I did this by making sure that I added clear pictures, had a legible font, and nice colors to catch their attention. I wanted to make sure that my slides had the right amount words for the students to read. I knew that they would lose interest in my presentation if I added large paragraphs or had too many words to my presentation. I had a total of twelve slides. I read over my slides multiple times to make sure that everything was correct. Each of my slides had a lot of information about Countee Cullen, the Harlem Renaissance, and the poems that I researched. Also, I added the quiz to my powerpoint to keep the students on their

With the rapid growth of technology in America’s society today, the use of computers in school classrooms has increased tremendously—an action that certainly has become beneficial to students, educators, and parents. The use of computers has positively skyrocketed over the past ten years. Not only are computers utilized daily in large companies across the world, but the everyday use in classrooms has also become prevalent. Using modern technology to assist school instructors with his or her daily lessons should definitely be regarded as a positive, acceptable method of instruction and not definitely does not prohibit students from understanding or critical thinking.

Although I did not necessarily enjoy the presentation aspects of this class, I definitely feel like I have improved as a presenter throughout the course of this class. The first presentation was pretty nerve-wrecking, which is my normal response whenever I have to present in front of people. With each presentation I have felt myself become more comfortable in front of people, less dependent on my notes, and just more confident in general. Even though I doubt public speaking will ever be one of my strong suits, I have become much more at ease with presenting and speaking in front of other people. Especially for the presentations in this class, it was reassuring to know that I was the person who was—in theory—an expert in my topic and most people were hearing this information for the first time, which eased a lot of the pressure when it came to
...pic is their favorite thing to do. It helps keep the audience engaged and makes the speaker entertaining to watch. In addition to being high energy speakers should appear to be friendly and personable, which can be as simple as smiling when they make eye contact with members of the audience. No one wants to watch someone who is frowning and unhappy it makes audience members uncomfortable, they will be more engaged with a happy, humorous presenter. It is imperative that presenters speak loudly and clearly. An audience can’t understand or value a speech they can’t hear. The last thing speakers need to avoid to give an engaging speech is reading off their PowerPoint or notes. Reading directly off a PowerPoint insults listener’s intelligence, lacks emotion, and decreases eye contact. PowerPoint slides should be nothing more than a summary of what the speaker is saying.

Technology is universally and allows the presentation through all the tasks whether it is economics, advertising, stream chain.
Oral presentations allows students to verbalize knowledge and use oral communication skills. Examples include interviews, speeches, skits, debates, and dramatizations.
Modern society heavily depends on the abilities of computers, Information Technology, and information processing. As such, since access to information occurs mainly through digital means and media, the way information is arranged and presented on the screen is crucial. Because of this need for fast access and easy arrangement arose, in the early 1980s, companies started to work on various graphical user interfaces (or GUI for short). Most dictionaries define a GUI as ‘a way of arranging information on a computer screen that is easy to understand and use because it uses icons, menus and a mouse rather than only text.’ Introducing such software allowed a human-computer interaction on a visual plane, and took computing to an entirely new level of experience. The first GUI started to emerge, as stated above, in the early 1980s, and within the last 3 decades have completely dominated the way in which human-computer communication occurs. Although some sources argue about it, it is acknowledged that the first company to use a proper graphical user interface was Apple. In 1984 they released the Macintosh computer, which used a graphical system to present information on the screen using boxes and taskbars, and utilized a revolutionary pointer device, now widely known as the mouse. Following this event, other companies started releasing their versions of GUI based operating systems, until in 1995 Microsoft presented Windows 95, which soon became a dominant power on the market, and along with its later installments, led Microsoft to be the IT giant of the 20th century. Since its appearance, the GUI have greatly influenced the IT-centered society, and the role computing and digital devices play in its growth.
