If you want to present from a cloud account using slides that are more interactive and good in graphics, you can think about Prezi. It is easily accessible from www.prezi.com and an account can be opened for free besides the premium membership.
Theoretical Considerations:
Prezi, like PowerPoint slides can serve the audio visual learners. It also motivates the learners in the classroom.
In the following video clip, you can get the guidelines of how to create slides in Prezi-
Advantages:
1. The templates help to type and create slides very easily.
2. The graphics of Prezi is really very good and attractive to look at.
3. Anyone can save the Prezi presentation in the cloud or website and use it from different places. Therefore, this facility of saving slides online has made it unique.
Limitations:
1. There needs to have internet connection in order to use Prezi from the cloud source. Therefore, if there is no internet connection, the use of the slides will not be possible.
2. The text in the slides some of the time looks very big or displaced. One needs to edit properly in order to make the text visually appropriate. The editing may take a lot of time too.
3. Though the animated graphics seems visually attractive, depending on the level of the learners or the context, consideration is needed to use appropriate template. A lot of animation may distract the learners in the classroom.
Using in Bangladesh:
In Bangladesh, teachers can easily use Prezi for creating class presentations and use in the classroom if internet connection is available. However, in case of situations when internet connection or projector is not available, it will not be judicious to use Prezi.
A Sample Prezi Presentation:
The following Prezi presentation has been created by me. You can have a look at it and enjoy creating your own Prezi presentations-
