3D Presentations from the Future October 11, 2010

I have been using Prezi.com for over a year now and it really changed the way I create my presentations. But the concept and technology the video I just discovered on New Scientist shows will certainly lead to major improvements regarding the experience of presenting and listening to presentations.

The LightSpace prototype projects slides, documents, photographs or video onto any surface, from a table to a door. Presenters can then touch and literally pick up a virtual item from a display and carry it across the room as a spot of light in the palm of their hand.

To perform commands – “play video”, for example – you move your hand along a projected light beam that acts as the central control. Holding your hand in the right position on the menu for a few seconds activates the function.

A Collaborative Keynote with Twitter May 25, 2010

I’m a big fan of Jane Hart, a Learning & Performance Consultant, and founder of the Centre for Learning & Performance Technologies. She just posted a great summary of how she uses Twitter for delivering and preparing keynotes.

Just like most keynotes, it was to be delivered using the presentation format, so as I planned my PowerPoint presentation, I needed to consider how to make it  as collaborative as possible.  I decided to make use of Twitter, as I knew there was already a backchannel  tag for the conference #edtech10 – and that meant many of the participants would already be using that.

But I wanted participants outside the room to be able to join in if they wished too, so I created 6 slides with the questions on them and the type of one-word responses I was looking for, and  I used Timo Elliott’s SAP Web 2.0 tools for PowerPoint to set up the tweets that would be auto-tweeted out when I presented.

Although Timo’s PowerPoint tools includes a Feedback slide where you can aggregate tweets, I decided I would use the normal Twitter search mechanism to display the real-time tweets in the #edtech stream.
