Biography/History:

Sinclair Dominique Charlotte: Domi Sinclair is a Learning Technologist at University College, London. This role requires her to advise educators on the use of a range of technology-enhanced learning solutions including social media and collaboration platforms such as Prezi. She has an undergraduate degree in Journalism and a Master's degree in Media, both of which required her to use innovative platforms and hone her presentation skills. It was through this desire to stand out during presentations that she first discovered the Prezi platform, and she has been utilizing it ever since. She has presented at a number of national and international conferences on both sides of the Atlantic. She always favors using the Prezi platform to compliment face-to-face presentations and has converted a number of her team's shared presentations from PowerPoint to Prezi. Domi has authored the book, Instant Prezi for Education How-to, Packt Publishing, which was released last year.

Summary:

If you want to learn Prezi, and specifically design within Prezi, this is the book for you. Perhaps you already know a bit about Prezi but have never used it, or perhaps you have used Prezi before but want to learn how to incorporate your own custom design elements. In either case, this book will get you up and running quickly. It would be helpful to have a bit of familiarity with basic design concepts and the use of Prezi, but prior experience is not essential.
