When doing a presentation there are many options and I explored different tools this week. Let’s dive in. I can not tell you much about Haiku Deck due to it requiring a fee and even the trail required credit card information to bill you after the trail time period. As for Prezi it has great tutorial videos but you needed to pay upfront to even use the tools. I created an account but can not make create a presentation! Frustrating! I used Emaze and loved it. The most difficult part of the presentation was choosing a topic and making sure I did used images that were CC Zero. The platform was easy to use and there are many templates, for education I liked the newspaper and gallery template. Emaze would be a good tool to use for the presentation project because it allows collaboration between group members. Just by clicking Share on the presentation and choosing collaboration, group members can edit the slides. Another tool I will mention is Canva, I loved this when making a Infographic and the presentation tools are just as user friendly. I like that on Canva they have many graphic and pictures available to use that are CC Zero and stress free to use. Canva also allows for collaboration in live time where all group members can use it at once which will be nice to do while on a Zoom meeting with group members. This is the format that our group will be using!
Check out my presentation using Emaze. Someone commeted that the link was not embeded correctly below so the direct link.

And here is the copied embedded information so hopefully it will appear.
Hey Lucinda,
Allyse Fritz here- I’m having a hard time seeing your Emaze. Could you check the link? I would love to see it!
I liked using Emaze as well! I chose the Gallery theme and think it would be a great choice for a book walkthrough in the library. I wasn’t able to view your presentation with the link. I did find the sharing and embedding part to be the trickiest.
Emaze seems like a very user-friendly tool. I like how your presentation went from room to room! This was a great transition for each of your books.
Thanks Carie! I’m glad you were able to view it now.
I loved your banned book presentation! I also used Emaze after running into payment/free restrictions with so many other platforms. It’s so frustrating trying to find services that are free. It would be worth researching if anyone has compiled a list of services that offer education discounts or accounts.
