You may use it or seek out what you are most comfortable with.—‹ —  Students will use their preferred presentation tool, create the presentation, and then embed their presentations into the discussion forum. In order to do so, you can upload it to a cloud service (such as Google Drive) and add a public link to your discussion post. This way, you will not have problems with the size of the file.—‹ —‹ Instructions—‹ —  For those of you who choose to use Prezi, go to prezi.com, create a free account and go through a quick tutorial to learn the program.

I’m sharing the instructions below:
Based on your readings throughout the course, you are to create a digital presentation using a presentation app of your choice (Prezi, PowerPoint, Key, etc..) of all of the concepts and principles that you have read based on the assigned readings. You may choose to focus on one specific module or all of them that you have read so far.
The Presentation will include a minimum of 30 slides, consisting of lots of illustrations, photos, poems, and videos to help explain your concepts. You will then post a link to your presentation as a discussion post. Respond to two other students’ presentations for full credit. Each presentation must have a minimum of 30 slides. Feel free to exceed this number. Create as many slides as necessary. Each presentation must have a minimum of 1 pertinent youtube video. At least one slide must explain the relevance of your embedded youtube video to the larger theme.
Goal: The goal of this activity is to compel to familiarize yourself with the concepts of the course. The goal of the exercise is to compel you to form your own understanding of the approaches, principles, concepts outlined.
