Traditionally, presentation and software tools used in classrooms have
included PowerPoint and Prezi. I am interested in ways I can integrate
technology in my classroom that engage students and allow them to create and demonstrate their knowledge. One such example of this is Emaze. Emaze is a software tool that is accessible online and available as an app for any android device.
Emaze lets you and your students create and share presentations you have
made. The software has free templates that are fully customisable. It also
allows you and your students to access your presentations online or on your
devices.
The software provides a free option as well as additional feature plans and
class subscriptions. This software is best suited to middle primary and older
students. I would say the main limitation is the pricing if you wanted to use
this software long-term (as students can only make a maximum of 3 presentations and 5 websites using the free version).

Hi Melinda,
Wow, I guess you could say that resource is “Emazing”!
Thank you for sharing this resource, it really sounds like an amazing tool to use in the classroom Although, it is a shame that there are some limitations on the application regarding how many presentations and websites can be created.
I found another great tool for presenting information, Canva! It allows students create and present information in various formats, which promotes constructivist learning and creating a student centred lesson! Students are able to explore and choose the format that best suits them! I think adding a combination of the two resources into the classroom would be a great idea!
