Prezi

Prezi has a similar function as Powerpoint, however, it look much prettier and you are able to share your presentation online. This tool is good for both teacher and student. We can use it to teach, students can use it to present. Overall I think this is a pretty cool tool, because of the functionality that it jumps from one page to another, and the animation of the transition is what Powerpoint does not support.
