My Prezi

My Prezi is about my path to realizing that dreams can come true.  I did not take the conventional method of getting my college degree after graduating high school and yet my journey through work has brought me back full circle to education which is where I knew I always belonged.  Throughout my work history I have been able to be in a position to volunteer and help children and families in various ways.  Each experience hooked me deeper and deeper until the time presented itself to take a leap of faith and finish my education.  I hope that my presentation can be viewed by younger students who may not be sure this is the right time for school and realize there isn't ever a wrong time.  A dream is still a dream no matter your age or educational background and there is always hope for it to come to fruition; it's a  matter of how badly do you want it.

I certainly look at my life today and sometimes wish I would have completed my degree in Education when I started it back in the 1990's however I am sure that I would not of had the philosophy and certainty that I possess today.  There is a bit of advantage having experience first and I hope that my future students and employer will feel the same way.<br />


So how do I feel about Prezi?  I truly love all the functions of inserting just about any type of media you can think of and the simplicity of doing so.  With that being said I am not crazy about the editing tools for text, title, body and so forth.  I am sure with more practice it will flow better however it took more time than I anticipated.  Another positive aspect of Prezi that I like is the ease of embedding into a blog and being able to access it from any computer that has internet capabilities.
