Step 2 Create A Prezi
PREZI.COM
Prezi is an online presentation software that allows users to create interactive presentations. It's similar to PowerPoint because you can make a presentation, but it's different because you can build your presentation in any order you want. Prezi also zooms in and out of the topics on your Prezi, making it a more interesting presentation.

Know what the Scenerio is:
- A major part of the Dust Bowl story concerns the Ogalalla Aquifer, an underground water source that covers 10,000 square miles from Texas to the Dakotas. Water from the Ogallala irrigates one fifth of all U.S. cropland. Yet, there are increasing signs that this vital resource may be losing in its ability to sustain agriculture at its present levels. Your team has been working with NASA satellite missions to quantify changes in the water resources in the Dust Bowl region. Your work will assist in developing policy concerning this most precious resource.
Note: The NASA GRACE and TRMM missions can be useful in analyzing water issues. Instructions on accessing this data are here.
For this project, you will create a Prezi about the Dust Bowl. You will use the requirements below to build your Prezi. Creativity and style are really up to you.
HOW YOU WILL BE GRADED
- You will be graded on how well you have research the Dust Bowl topic
- If there is typing required, then you must have typing to get full points. Also, all typing must be spelled correctly and be in complete sentences.
- If you are required to have a picture, you must have a picture in that section.
- Your recommendation policy must be clear.
- Finally, your project must have the paths (dot to dot connections) in order to be complete.
***Keep in mind that step 2 starts you off on Prezi... You will finalize the prezi by adding links to all the phases as mentioned in "Project"
