Ken Robinson’s talk “How to escape education's death valley” is one of my favorites. It was recorded in April of 2013. I highly recommend that you watch his latest talk on TED.com. The quotes I assembled for the talk are the one’s most salient to me personally. This is not an attempt to summarize his talk in anyway, but perhaps a quote or two will be useful for you in your own presentations related to education, etc. The slides are in PDF, but you can easily cut and paste text as you wish. You can of, course, get the entire transcript of the talk on the ted.com website (in many languages). Let’s keep the conversation regarding the education revolution going. peace - garr
Six safe fonts to use in your presentationsPresentitude
When you are creating PowerPoints and choosing a font, you have to make your selection carefully. Not only because fonts are communicating a feeling and a mood for your presentation, but also for practical reasons. There are only 40-something fonts that are safe to use if you want your PowerPoint to show correctly on any computer or in any version of PowerPoint Six of these “safe” fonts are these six “C-fonts”.
These are a pdf of the slides I used in the TEDxTokyo 2011 talk. (there are video clips you can not see in this format of course). This was a 12-minute presentation. The video was streamed live and will be on YouTube soon.

These are the slides used for the foreword in the 2008 international best-seller called "Presentation Zen." Guy thought it would be fun to do it in slide form rather than the traditional book foreword. A lot of people have asked for the slides. Here they are. Sorry, only PDF is available. 15 individual slides.
Dan's latest TED talk reminded me a bit of one of his points in the Johnny Bunko book concerning motivation. So here are the slides just from that part of the Bunko book review slideshare deck I created last year.
This new documentary looks good: (Food, Inc. trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mf4ZmfjyEvI ). So I went to the website and found a simple postcard with 10 points about what you can do. It's USA-centric but I though it had some good (though incomplete) points. I whipped these up very quickly just as an experiment. The slides were created in Keynote, saved as JPEGs, and put back into ppt (also as an experiment to see how the render in Slideshare). Aspect ratio is 16x9. I have no affiliation with the Movie whatsoever, just an interested 3rd party.
These were the slides used in the Safari Webcast held 12_15_08 from Tokyo. These are *not* meant to be stand alone slides, but many people were asking for the PDF, so here you go. This is the actual PDF I used. Here, however, some of the type colors may be off (though it worked well when uploaded; colors were correct). It is 240 slides because I used a PDF and therefore more slides are used to simulate animation. The PDF was 30 MB uploaded here. There were lagging issues during the webex webcast though I was not aware of them. The archive is better though there are still timing issues. Not really much new here in this deck for longtime followers.
Last night (Oct 4) I was taken to a cool designer hotel room by my wife for what I was told was just a quite dinner. When I opened the door, Surprise!!! All my friends had gathered for a surprise birthday party. At that party my good friend Nathan Bryan gave a great presentation using Keynote slides (connected to a large, beautiful LCD display). These are the slides he used. The slides complemented his talk (I do not know where he got some of those pics). It felt like a roast. The slides at the end were sent in by friends and family in ppt (and made in really bad ppt style on purpose...nice). The slide by Duarte is very creative :-)

Pitching Tips: presentation tips from The Pitching Coachgarr
This is a remix of tips and advice from David S. Rose's presentations on how to pitch to a VC for money. These slides are not designed to be a stand alone presentation. The design of the slides is experimental and are not the actual slides used by David S. Rose in his presentations to entrepreneurs. Do not adjust your computer -- the display type (Carbontype) is suppose to look that way (whether that is good or bad -- effective or lame -- is another issue all together).

On the flight back to Japan last week I watched the DVD "Comedian" again, this time while jotting down notes and quotes from the film. I put the quotes in a Slideshare below. This Slideshare is not meant to be a presentation — I'm simply sharing with you some of the new slides I'm working on as I prepare for new talks. Perhaps a quote or two from this deck will be useful for you.
One of the best books I have read this year is Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School. The applications for presentation are many. This is a book review of sorts, though I do not highlight all aspects of the book. I focus on the three rules that relate most directly, though all the rules have lessons. Just a fantastic book.
This presentation outlines the six lessons in Dan Pink's new book, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko. I expanded a little on some of the lessons. I added more text a some more slides than I would use in the actual talk. Nothing fancy -- these are are very simple slides to create.
This deck contains slides I have used in live talks that (more or less) are simple and contain quite a bit of empty space. The first set are some before/after examples, followed by a random sample. This deck is not meant to tell a story -- this is just a way to show some random examples. The meaning of the slides may not be at all clear without the narration that goes with the slides.
Just a test done very quickly and with sever jet lag. Garageband was used for the audio. Shure mic. Keynote slides converted to PDF. Not a presentation, just a test. Cheers!

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
