Confusing. Irrelevant. Misleading. Complicated. Obfuscating. Mindnumbing. Confounding. Pointless. Useless.

Focusky looks like a total Prezi ripoff. In fact, it is. Including all the problems of a pan and zoom presentation software. We do not need more software. We need better trainers, better role models in Acadamia, less trust in presenting tools, marketing promises and those 80s bullshit learning theories. (And no, just because something moves, it doesn’t help you or anyone to understand anything any better.) Thinking for yourself and on your feet is a good start, though. And while your at it, open the windows, let some fresh air in and turn off the projector once in a while.
