Teaching tip: Beyond PowerPoint
September 13, 2012
Let鈥檚 look at presentations in two stages. The first stage is delivery: the act of
giving and discussing your presentation with your immediate audience. The second stage
is the time after your presentation in which discussion can continue around a persistent
presentation artifact. This stage usually takes place when a presentation is uploaded
to a website where comments are enabled. Different tools support each stage of your
presentation differently.
PowerPoint supports the first stage of a presentation only. When you break away from
PowerPoint consider how much authoring time you have available, whether or not you
want a persistent artifact, and your interest in continuing the conversation after
your immediate presentation. These considerations will help you decide which tool
or tools to use authoring and delivering your message.
