The final project for my digital media class this semester (LIS5313) was to create an "informative media art project for instructional use in an information organization." I chose to do a Prezi to instruct high school teachers on how they can use digital storytelling to meet state and national standards as well as engage their students.
Prezi can be a really frustrating technology to use at times, but I think the end results can be really engaging and fun to watch. There are parts I'm not happy with, but overall, I think this Prezi gets across the message that I want it to.
Here it is:

Yay!!
1) I got an A on my digital story project. Yay! I got a lot of good feedback on mine, and everyone really seemed to like it.
2) I taught my lesson on Boolean operators (three times) to a bunch of 8th grade students. Yay!
This is the Prezi I made to use in the lesson. It's nothing fancy, and I only used it for about 10 minutes out of the 60 minute lesson, but Prezi is fun!
That first screen with the three columns was used as a warm-up before the lecture portion started. All the students had one playing card at their seat and I had them stand up based on what I described (red AND an even number/red AND an even number/red NOT an even number/etc.). The Prezi was projected on to a Promethean white board, so with that first screen up, I wrote the numbers of students who stood up on the white board in the appropriate column based on whether I said AND, OR, or NOT.
