The Prezzi program is used as a bridge platform between linear and nonlinear information, and, as a presentation tool for the exchange of ideas, either free or structured, text, images, videos, and, other, media, are placed on the canvas, and can be grouped into frames.

Introduction In my case, my previous activity was based on the context of an international school in Belize, where I live, and as an Educational Manager or School Director,  I would need to communicate first with all the relevant parties that are going to help me brainstorm the planning process and the final proposal to other members of the international school governing body.
