Session Title: Beyond PowerPoint: Keep the Big Picture in Your Presentation Without Losing the Details
Demonstration Session 353 to be held in California A on Thursday, Nov 3, 1:35 PM to 2:20 PM
Sponsored by the Data Visualization and Reporting TIG
Presenter(s):
Lyn Paleo, First 5 Contra Costa, lpaleo@firstfivecc.org
Abstract: Imagine you are preparing for a presentation. Rather than a pack of Powerpoint slides that dice and slice your presentation into small, equally sized rectangles, you get an enormous white board onto which you place title, text, sets of graphs, photos, pdf files, videos, portions of an Excel sheet. You show the audience the "big picture", and with a click zoom in to examine details such as a paragraph of a document, and zoom out to show how this detail relates to the big picture concept. Prezi is a new alternative to Powepoint-free, simple to use, and engaging. It extends the principles of Tufte and Few from graphs to entire presentations. This demonstration will walk through a Prezi presentation related to evaluation concepts and findings, then will show how simple it is to make a presentation. By the end of the session, participants can create their own presentation.
