The program could be used as an alternative to PowerPoint or Prezi, but it's meant to stand on its own, whereas students usually use PP and Prezi as visual aids to accompany an oral presentation. It's also meant to be image-centered as opposed to text-centered, and you're very limited on how much text you can fit on a slide. There's a plus side to that too though because it forces you to break the information down into concise, easy-to-process chunks. I think it would be a great tool for students to tell a visual narrative, to give a history report on an important event, to do a presentation on an artist and show several of his/her works, or for art students themselves to create a personal portfolio presentation with a collection of their works and artist statements alongside each. Teachers could also use it to design presentations to deliver content.
Simple and quick with engaging results. Highly recommended.
