Presenting

There are several tools that allow you to present images using a computer & digital projector. These tools are particularly useful for classroom presentations.

  • PowerPoint: Part of Microsoft's Office suite of programs. Add pictures to text presentations, or leave the text out all together!
  • Keynote: for Mac only. Keynote enables "cinema quality presentations for everyone"

There are lots of web-based presentation options, such as Prezi, Haiku Deck, Google Slides, and emaze.

Like Zotero, it's free and was developed at The Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason University. Tropy allows you to spend more time working with your research photos, and less time searching for them.
