PowerPoint


First, I'm using PowerPoint as a term of convenience -- Keynote or Impress or the slideware of your choice can work just as well.

 

We have typically seen powerpoint used to push information out to audiences using text and/or images (example).

 

What about other ways of using the tool? Three examples

  1. Writing on a powerpoint (example = images from the State of the Union address)
  2. Using powerpoint to make a game (example = Biotechnology jeopardy; this isn't my work so I can't share it)
  3. Student-created powerpoint, using it to make flashcards (again, not my work)
