![]() ![]() ![]() Prezi is designed as an evocative technology: it explicitly aims to encourage certain ways of dealing with knowledge, organizing information in space, through movement and storylines. We conclude the paper by highlighting the main findings and reflecting on implications for research on digital rhetoric. We analyze several types of messages from and about Prezi, and we discuss how it is currently used. We then go on to investigate what is Prezi and how we encounter it. The paper is structured as follows: we first discuss the significance of presentation tools for learning. Nonetheless, we propose that these voices leave important aspects uncovered for educational users, and we argue that the Prezi team should redefine its author guidance strategy. The Prezi company, together with dedicated commercial and professional users, create a talkative and plurivocal technology, with a flow of tutorials and showcased presentations. Still, we argue that many educational prezis in psychology fall short of such aims, relying on bullet points in a decorated, quasi slide-based document. Prezi claims to offer an alternative to a much ridiculed PowerPoint, and Prezi's rhetorical options indeed privilege storytelling and metaphors through spatial organization, movement, and visuals. We analyze the presentation software Prezi as an evocative object and a talkative technology that engages users in diverse web-based learning situations.

Bakersfield College and the Habits of Mind Initiative, It’s POSSIBLE at BC, worked to create many tools intended to help you develop the empowering habits that will enable you to overcome the challenges you face.People who succeed in life don’t do so because they face no challenges, rather they overcome the destructive things in their lives because they empower themselves with good habits. What determines success is not circumstance, but habit.You may not always be able to control what happens in your life, but you can determine your reaction, your planning, and your priorities.Many of these challenges may seem beyond your control. Many of you will face obstacles that threaten your academic goals this semester.Success takes energy, planning, and strategies for both the expected challenges in school as well as the unexpected twists life can take.
