Presentation styles - Powerpoint is not your only choice

Up until now I have written seven blogs and for my eighth I didn't know what to blog about ( I believe the condition is known as blogger's block). In the end I decided to discuss new ways of presenting assignments for college assessments. It was only this year, in my final year of college, that I found out that there were different ways to present assignments not using the Microsoft Powerpoint platform. My class and I are studying E-Business and our continual assessment was based on marketing an educational information and communication technology company. The CEO of the company presented the company to the class in the medium of Prezi which is known as a zooming presentation editor. This is a very intuitive way of presenting and will stand out in a lecture where other students are using Microsoft Powerpoint. The other medium is called Pecha Kucha. This platform uses twenty slides each lasting twenty seconds. It is a fantastic platform lasting six minutes and fourth seconds per presentation so the presenters get straight to the point. I have used both Prezi and Pecha kucha and they are very user friendly. I would recommend both platforms to every student.

While browsing the internet I found a website which allowed me to write any text and then read it upside and backwards so I said I would give it a go. It is definitely something with a difference and quite unusual. Below you can see the results:
