1. The Secret Weapon For Your
Presentation
PowerPoint( © MicrosoftCorp.) is an extensively used donation programme
that began in the world of business but has now come commonplace in the
world of educational technology. Still, its use is far from controversial in this
educational environment and opinions as to its use range from largely
probative to significantly negative( Citation Szabo & Hastings, 2000; Lowry,
2003). One of the major problems is that its current use is constantly
limited to an information transmission mode, frequently with inordinate
content, an operation that obscures the wider eventuality for different
professional and pedagogically-sound donations. I've been using
PowerPoint to deliver all applicable classes since 1996, as well as
delivering staff development sessions on both the programme and the
pedagogy of its use. It's my contention that it's a precious aid to donation
furnishing that its use has been precisely considered in terms of pedagogy.
This paper examines some of the crucial issues that must be considered at
both an individual and an organizational position.
Part of the difficulty in objectively assessing the use of PowerPoint in
education stems directly from one of its most favorable features, videlicet
the ease of use and the fairly shallow literacy- wind needed to achieve
introductory- position operation. This has resulted in, frequently
questionable, practices within educational circles. It particularly includes
inadequately allowed- out use in lectures where it becomes simply an
indispensable form of presenting largely textbook- grounded material that
used to be delivered using ‘ old technology ’( chalk and talk) this makes
little use of the new and flexible openings offered by use of PowerPoint
within the educational field.
This paper provides an overview of both the benefits and the problems
associated with its use and suggests some crucial pedagogical opinions
that should be considered when espousing its use. It'll not change the

2. nature of the academic content since that will be discipline-specific and
must remain an issue for the academic staff alone. I also wish to
emphasize that I'm not championing its mandatory relinquishment under
all circumstances and by all staff. still, I do hope that, by furnishing
information and direction on stylish practice, I may convert those presently
meaning its use that the benefits, when meetly used, far overweigh the
implicit negatives for both staff and scholars and that it offers an excellent
and important tool to grease the bettered delivery of numerous courses
and modules.

Some good reasons to use PowerPoint
So why should you consider using PowerPoint for your tutoring and
literacy conditioning? There are numerous reasons but the crucial bones
include
● Applicable use of PowerPoint can enhance the tutoring and literacy
experience for both staff and scholars.
● It provides stimulants and support to staff by easing the structuring of
a donation in a professional manner. The templates handed have
been designed to overpass good donation criteria similar as the
number of lines of information per slide and applicable fountain sizes
and types, etc using the styles of the dereliction templates can
significantly ameliorate the clarity and structuring of a donation. This
helps to avoid the common use of inordinate textbooks frequently
set up on overhead clarity.
● By careful mixing of media, a donation can appeal to a number of
different literary styles and be made more stimulating. You're
encouraged to incorporate more sophisticated visual and audible
media into donations although care is needed because of the

3. ineluctable increase in train sizes and the peril of inordinate use.
objectification can be done, either directly from within the programme
or, occasionally more successfully, by applicable breaking of the
PowerPoint donation and using indispensable technology(e.g. tape
recording player or VCR). Note that this doesn't bear switching off
either the computer system or the projector system, one of the most
common comprehensions that circumscribe use — rather, use the ‘
B ’ character toggle switch during a slide donation to ‘ blank ’ the
screen temporarily while using other media.
● The electronic train format allows distribution and revision for/ by
scholars unfit to be present or who have bloodied visual or audible
difficulties. PowerPoint comes with a free bystander programme that
can be distributed with the lines so that the anthology isn't needed
to have PowerPoint on their particular system. Still, if they do have it,
they're suitable to perform a lesser variety of manipulations on the
PowerPoint train, similar to editing the textbook, etc before
publishing it out. utmost Virtual literacy surroundings( VLEs) are now
able to include PowerPoint donations if needed.
● Editing of each PowerPoint train is veritably easy with minimum
associated reprinting costs. This ease and implicit proximity of
modification facilitates reflection upon, and elaboration of, tutoring
accouterments by staff whilst minimizing the consequences of any
modification in terms of either workload or time. This was a major
reason for my own expansive switch of tutoring accouterments to
PowerPoint, indeed when the end- product needed to be an overhead
protuberance slide. I also find that I can add a new slide whilst in a
lecture if so needed. I frequently use this system to present notices
or produce a record of the outgrowth when collecting information
from the class so that it can later be made available to the entire
class.
● The printing of handouts in a variety of formats is eased with a
number of bedded options to print either the slides themselves( useful
if there are plates involved) or the textbook from the slides(
outlines). The outlines may be saved as. rtf format and opened for
further revision within an applicable word processor. This allows the

4. easy development of further sophisticated handouts grounded on the
PowerPoint donation but with redundant interactive rudiments
similar as readings and questions added where applicable.
● Redundant information can be ‘ retired ’ within lines for answering
prognosticate questions or for furnishing feedback to scholars using
the train in a distance- learning environment. The use of speakers
notes as an automated feedback system was described by
CitationMottley( 2003) who also describes other ways to use
PowerPoint for development of tone- study accouterments
● The portability of the lines, especially on compact disks( CDs) with
their large capacity, allows donations to be given wherever the
technology is available or distributed where applicable. donations can
also be set up to run automatically if needed eg. as demonstrations
instructions within a laboratory
