What I did at school today: 6/3/13

Today was the last full day of SOL testing, and I was all set to start returning the desktop computers to classrooms and to set up the laptop lab again.  (I even brought jeans to change into!)  However, there is still make-up testing tomorrow, and it has been decided that the lab is the preferred location for this testing, so I'm still in my shirt and tie.

Today was a Prezi day.  I have a couple of presentations that I am working on.  Yes, PowerPoint still offers the most flexibility, but Prezi has that cool factor.  If Prezi was a singer, it'd be Ray Charles or Van Morrison.  Both of my presentations were created from templates.  I have created many of my own templates in PowerPoint, but I've never done that in Prezi.  In PowerPoint you can insert images and text on the master slides, and that can be saved as a template.  I haven't yet figured out how to do this in Prezi.  I can insert an image, but I can't get it to be locked on to the background.  Perhaps it can't be done, but at the rate at which they keep improving Prezi, it's just a matter of time.
