I agree with Mike's comments about the resilience of Powerpoint if well used. I had a quick go with Prezi following Marie-Therese's email and found it rather enticing and then strangely limiting, after you get over the initial zoominess of it all. Like Andy (below) I have tried other tools based on linking concepts, and my current favourite is http://bubbl.us/ Martin ---------------------------------------------------- Martin Bazley Online experience consultant Martin Bazley & Associates 15 Margin Drive Wimbledon SW19 5HA 0780 3580 727 [log in to unmask] www.martinbazley.com -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Worth [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: 25 June 2010 08:36 To: Martin Bazley Subject: RE: Stable slideshow application? (February 2010) I have used "MindManager" building up a mind map of the subject then using links, vid clips, and sound to create a presentation. It suits presenting on linked presentations and allows questions which go off at a tangent to be answered in the presentation. From a teaching point of view it allows my students to see the whole subject with links and media and the linkages within a topic in one presentation.

(February 2010) -----Original Message----- From: Museums Computer Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Marie-Therese Gramstadt Sent: 24 June 2010 17:34 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Stable slideshow application? (February 2010) Hello, I was only just beginning a research project when there was a MCG post on 'Stable slideshow application?' back in February. It would be great if members on this list felt this was a topic they would like to discuss further. My starter question in that case would be: who uses Prezi? and do they prefer it to PowerPoint? or are there any other presentation technologies or methods that are preferrable to PowerPoint e.g. analogue slides? If members would prefer to reply off list then I would be happy to collate information and send back to the list. I would also be very grateful for 7 minutes of your valuable time in order to gather data that will benefit the visual arts sector, including academic staff, support staff, librarians, information managers, slide librarians, visual resource curators, museums and gallery staff, and IT staff. The specific research area is image presentation software and how resources can be better adapted to existing pedagogic practice. I would like to hear from all those who use, support others use of, or would like to use, presentation technology in their current role, particularly to present or teach about images or the visual arts. Any data received will be treated as anonymous and held confidentially. Further details and a copy of the final report are available on request (see the end of the survey for details). https://survey.ucreative.ac.uk/presentations I would be very grateful if you could circulate this email as appropriate.
