Prezi possibly?

Well...  that seemed a little too simple.  So I imagine I did it all wrong.  Let me paste the link in and get it live to see where we stand.  This is my Presume.  And here is a Jing shot.

It appears I did it correctly.  I left most of my experience "blank" because I have a job and don't want to alarm my principal. :)  I love what I am doing now and have no thoughts of moving on, however, making the action-jackson Prezi resume was fun.  The only real challenge was related to the fact that I do not have a Facebook account so I was unable to click on the templates provided and get them to work.  I had to go to Prezi, sign up for the free account, and search templates.  I went with the only resume template that was offered, but it was fine.

iste standards: I think this is a good example of standard 3, modeling digital age work and learning, and standard 1, inspire student learning and creativity.  Although this was a resume, I believe we have another assignment upcoming that will require us to use Prezi in the classroom.  This is a unique tool and one that will capture the imagination of my students once I master how to choreograph the "slides."  It should be embraced and utilized by teachers to liven up presentations, and older students could have a lot of fun using it themselves.  This was a good practice exercise to play with the interface and see how to add, delete, modify things.  It is certainly a creative way to present material.
