“PowerPoint has not improved medical pedagogy: it has instead made the large lecture experience a mind numbing waste of time.”

Mr Powerpoint. This guy gives BORING PowerPoint lectures, but he is VERY knowledgeable and is worth listening to and is excellent in the lab. If his lectures were not so boring he could be one of the best!

Some thoughts on how to avoid making really awful PowerPoint
lectures
by Chris AndersonPolitics and Government Department
University of Hartford
1. The Autocontent Wizard
• A lecture lasts a lot longer than most business presentations
• The Wizard is would like you to make bullet point after bullet point
• This can become tiresome
• Very quickly• Tired yet?
is not your friend
2. Design templates are not cool2. Design templates are not cool
• It might be a pretty mountain scene, but it really doesn’t help unless you are talking about mountains.
Ask yourself: Will this background will make my presentation more interesting?
Answer yourself: No, not at all. – But it might make you think you have made
your presentation more interesting.– It will also make the room darker.
Don’t just make lecture outlines
For those who prefer equations:
L=X+Y-Z
L’=I(E+D+P+N+Q)
L= PowerPoint Lecture X= Chalkboard lectureY= Better handwritingZ= Spontaneity
L’= Not so awful PowerPoint LectureI= Imaginative use of images and animationE= EmphasisD= DataP= ProcessesN= NarrativesQ= Discussion prompts
Anderson’s thinking
Nothing says “this is not a powerpoint template”
like a plain white
background.
Anderson’s thinking
Nothing says “this is not a powerpoint template”
like a plain white
background. Introduce
anarchy
Don’t just make lecture outlines
Try to use images and custom animation creatively.
Surprise is good.
To the extent my PowerPoint presentations have been successful, it is because I do not always use them to put up lecture outlines.
“ “
I use them to emphasize important points, to provide visual representation of data, and to add illustrations to narratives.
“ “
Listening to a lecture is a difficult experience; human beings are not designed to receive information this way. PowerPoint should be used to make the class less predictable, rather than more predictable.

What I like about PowerPoint
1. I can be more spontaneous – Worry less about “What comes next?”
2. I can be more creative and interact better with the class
3. I am challenged more What IS important? What key words, in what sequence, with what pictures best captures
“it”?
7. Bottom line. Best medium for topical/dynamic/creative environment for M116

What does it look like on campus?
• Seminar attendance doubled in a year.
• Waiting Lists
Pairing my lectures with PowerPoint slides inevitably brought a wholesale revision of the lectures for the entire course.

I am challenged more: What IS important? What key words, in what sequence, with what pictures best captures “it”?

They’re taking notes!Elizabeth Burt
Most of the teachers use PowerPoint. Students download the file before class and watch it on their laptops in their rooms. Instructors who do nothing but read off the slides find their attendance drops dramatically, they get poor student reviews and fussed at by the higher-ups in administration. Some of them try to counter by giving pop quizzes but that just means that students come to class, ignore the teacher, read a book for a more challenging course, take the quiz at the end of class, and leave.

Web 2.0
“is less a planned upgrade than a recognition of the way small technical developments, along with quite significant changes in practice, are altering how we interact with information and with each other in the electronic medium”
(Edward J. Maloney, ‘what web2.0 can teach us about Learning’ The Chronicle of Higher Education, 1/5/07 http://chronicle.com/weekly/v53/i18/18b02601.htm )
