This is the first presentation using Prezi I have ever completed; although I have started a few in the past 12 months before the pressure of being prepared for whatever conference led me to not finish (and use my blog or PowerPoint).
Prezi has turned out to be a fun tool - once you ‘get’ the concept - and I highly recommend it.
Critical comments – on form, style and content - (on this draft) are welcome. Be gentle though, this is my first time and I know my next prezi will be much sleeker. Prezi will not embed to WordPress.com blogs and the work around is to use Vodpod which looks a little dodgy. You might want to see it at the direct link hosted at Prezi.
Anyways, I suggest you click autoplay if you try the below version but it is a bit lame without the narration or music:

However, the process of drafting the presentation, for our Year 11 conference, has led to much reflection about the pedagogy possible in institutions and the need for reformation of our systems; especially assessment and reporting which drives education in our country.
You can read those reflections here.

Good to see the recognition of creative commons – and their role in moving the agenda for sensible licensing for educational purposes. Identify CC material in advanced search engines under ‘licensing’ . Recently Adobe curriculum material has come under CC. I’d also recommend http://www.mindomo.com / Gliffy- but lets not forget the array of tools & utilities already available to students via the Adobe and Microsoft suites.
