17. Conclusion
• Prezi is an effective presentation software for learning
• Popularity does not count as a basis of a good presentation
software
• Prezi has overpowered PowerPoint in terms of simplicity
and level of functionality while PowerPoint overpowers
Prezi in terms of popularity and range of animations
18. Recommendations
• Educators should learn how to make a Prezi to improve their
teaching skills and for their convenience, not to mention the
time that they will save when they utilize it on their class
discussions.
• Students should also use Prezi on their reports so they can bring
change on the world of presentations. They will also improve
their creativity by doing such.
• Future possible researchers must be proficient of the software.
• Another thing is that, the future researchers should have more
respondents, and have the comparison of results from
PowerPoint to Prezi.
