Presentation Prezi

I used Prezi to organize my presentation and to provide a more aesthetically pleasing experience for students who are used to seeing various types of power points.
Prezi has been touted as one of the best educational sites for creating power points and I used it to create a short presentation on the benefits of exercise. Due to limited class time and technology in our PE settings, the students have little knowledge behind the benefits and reasons behind exercising. The short presentation on Prezi gives a global vision of why being active is so important.

I used an art gallery theme to capture students attention and titled it 'Getting in the groove to move' since my audience would be middle school students. The different set ups of the presentation allowed me to focus in on certain aspects of what I wanted to to explain and use a mix of pre-made set ups to highlight the important information.

For future use in PE classes, our department could connect such presentations to a screen in the PTC for view before class starts, explaining the rational and theories behind many of the concepts in PE.
Prezi could also be used for presenting rules with visuals, to students rather than explaining them verbally (on indeed to reinforce concepts already learned). Finally, these presentations could be shared on google drive for homework or to make up any work missed.
