In this project you will use "Prezi", online presentation software to
create and engaging presentation with the theme "This Day In History"
The project will require some research first, to ensure you pick a good topic and one that interests you. You will have one week to complete this presentation so budget your time.
I am looking for Creativity & Quality AND Demonstrating Skills learned in Prezi... not just saying "I'm Done".
Your presentation will need to be based facts from your research, cool pictures and supportive sound effects and background music.
Be sure use the "support" links at Prezi to look up things you do not know how to do, or ways to enhance your presentation, the help database is good, I have used already.
