Prezi Stays Fresh (like mint chocolate chip ice cream)
Need a picture of mint chocolate chip ice cream when you're making a Prezi? My friend David did, and he got one super fast without leaving Prezi.
Don't you love it when you open a site and find something new, unexpected, easy to use, and helpful?! While teaching a class about web tools today, we discovered the awesome Prezi:Google images integration-- need a picture? Get one fast and free.
Here's a great link to the new features added to Prezi. It stays up-to-date so you can easily find out what you might be missing!

Georgia Public Broadcasting 'Stop the Drop' Video Contest!
Stop the Drop is an initiative
to prevent high school students from dropping out
of school. In Nov. 2011, GPB brought together community
members and organizations along with school policy
makers to discuss dropout prevention at a day-long summit.
We heard from professionals in education, after school
programs, and students on issues impacting high schoolers. GPB has maintained a voice in the community to continue to raise awareness of the dropout crisis and connect communities working to improve graduation rates around the state.
