Performance Support: Featuring Prezi
Animations In Our Learning Framework
To Supplement Online Training
Background
As an organization providing innovative learning solutions
(focusing on eLearning, mLearning and blended learning),
we recently added the Performance Support Solutions to
our portfolio.
Since inception, learner centricity has been the core of our
learning designs. Our on-going focus on innovation has
enabled us to craft immersive and engaging learning
experiences irrespective of authoring tools or changing
technology.
As an extension, our foray into Performance Support
Solutions also features the same thread of innovation.

Case study: How To Use Prezi To Create An Innovative
Learning Aid
In this article, I will share a case study on how we have
used Prezi (a presentation tool) to create an innovative
learning aid. Shortly, this will be a part of our upcoming
Performance Support solutions.
Many of us would have used Prezi to create engaging
presentations with 3D zooming functionality. We too
had used the tool to create our Corporate overview
presentation.
During this development, we noted the potential of
creating learning aids that are based on Prezi animations
on account of the “stickiness of learning” that it can
provide.

This case study showcases a learning aid that has:
1. Multi-device support (Runs seamlessly on PCs,
laptops and tablets)
2. Learning concepts in a stunning 3D zoom
presentation format (Playing on Prezi’s core
strength)
3. Integration of the learning pieces into an eLearning
course (Through our eLearning framework) along-
with
• Interesting inline-check formats
• Value-adds like “Rate the course (Like the course)”
and “Recommend the course”

Here is a screenshot of what our
learning aid looks like:

How have we leveraged on Prezi’s strengths to create a “sticky learning” experience?
1. We find that Prezi is well suited as a mind-mapping tool. We could lay down the various learning
elements initiatively on the learning path.
2. We also love the control it provides us to direct the learner through various elements in the learning
path.
3. Although we are familiar with the “motion sickness” association of Prezi’s animations, we found that
when used in moderation, we could use this feature to focus learner’s attention to the required aspect.

11
What makes it tick?
1. This is why I feel the Prezi based approach to
create learning aids results in an engaging and
immersive experience:
2. Since the approach is very different from the
typical representations, you grab the learner’s
attention right away.
3. Since we get to precisely direct the learner
attention in the manner we want to; the
retention is high.
4. Although opinion is still divided on the “zoom
and pan” control’s impact on learning, I believe
that when used right this approach delivers.

Final verdict: We have asked for opinion in our proof
of concept as we are tracking the “Like” and
“Recommend” feedback through our framework. I will
certainly keep you posted.

What are the gains?
The gains are clearly better recall and retention. The learners found the experience to be immersive and
more engaging than traditional training formats.

14
What are the potential application areas of this learning aid?
I am sure the potential is huge although so far, we have found applications in following areas:
1. Change management
2. Supporting programs for Compliance (awareness)
3. Introducing new initiatives
4. Introducing new products

15
I look forward to your views on our solution and
further suggestions on its application areas.
