Prezi also allows you to crop, edit, and replace your images. The exact same can be done with YouTube videos and pdf files.  After you created your presentation, you can view it on the left of your screen and if you’re not happy with the layout, the teacher may use the “drop and drag” facility to place your presentation in the order of your choice.
