Prezi
I was so excited to see Prezi as one of the choices. I have used Prezi before and I think its the best presentation software out there.
I recently was at a teaching seminar hosted by the Gurian Institute in Denver Colorado. This seminar was called "Closing the Gender Achievement Gap" . I teach in an all male school and this summer institute is designed to give teachers the knowledge and tools to help boys be better understood and achieve more. One of the things I was taught in Denver was that boys need to be visually engaged so they learn better. They also need variety and movement. Prezi satisfies all of these points and it easy to use and fun.
This program is both Creative and Innovative which falls under the first standard of ISTE.
Specifically sub standard b " Create original works as a means of personal or group expression"
I created a Prezi for my Digital Photography class on something called forced perspective. I used all stock photos. I would lecture while presenting this and give them tips on how to take the photos.

Prezi is a great tool- I use it all the time. I wish however you would have explored a tool you were unfamiliar with....
