Would it be unethical of you to show an example? I'm just trying to imagine the heinousness involved, here. If doing so would require divulging trade secrets, or overtly identifiable information you're not comfortable sharing, no problem. I just want to share the joy if you can. |

And, I'll bet it ran at least 25 MB, and it had to be emailed around at least five times, right?! |

Anyone with a college degree can be a graphic designer. What do you need? All you need is a little imagination , a computer , and a little clip art and you're a winner! |

Just because you have MS Project on your computer and you put together a schedule does not mean you are a project manager. |

From my Syllabus ... Quote: Oral Presentation: <blah blah blah blah standard assignment stuff>
NOTE: If you have Power Point on your computer, uninstall it. Then, purge it ... with fire. |

Khross, Powerpoint has some incredibly useful tools for organizing information for presentation and keeping interest focused. The issue is people make it the focus instead of keeping the focus on themselves as the speaker. |

Have to agree with Elmo here. Powerpoint is a tool. Getting all angsty over it is like getting all angsty over the gun involved in a shooting instead of the shooter. |

No doubt. Khross - just add more clip art. |

No, see, you guys don't work in universities wherein students have been forced to give PowerPoint presentations for the better part of the last 15 years. Consequently, these students have no honest idea how to give a presentation with any authority. |

But Powerpoint is from Microsoft, and being able to use to it gives them authority. Its like wearing a badge. |

Presentations with authority? Clip art's got you covered. |

I fail to see where using PowerPoint has any causative effect on someone's ability to present with authority. That seems to be a lack of education or training on how to present, regardless of what tools you're using. |

I think what he's trying to say is that students are being taught to make powerpoint slides rather that getting education and training on how to present. I can see this happening; I've seen plenty of briefings where someone stands there and reads the slides. |
