The PowerPoint Critic
Edward Tufte
Cognitive Style of PowerPoint
![Page 10: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Edward Tufte’s Criticisms
1.Low resolution
2.Bullet outlines dilute thought
3.Deeply hierarchical and linear structure
4.Fragments narrative and data
5.Preoccupation with format, not content
6.Decoration and phluff
![Page 11: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Tufte’s Implicit Recommendations
1.Use more useful visuals or give handouts 2.Use clear headings, numbered lists or
very few bulleted outlines
3.Design and leverage PowerPoint’s non-linear and non-hierarchical capabilities
4.Use plain, non-distracting backgrounds; use information rich and relevant images

Strategies to Improve PowerPoint
![Page 15: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Four ways we use PowerPoint
1.For presentations
2.To teach a face-to-face class
3.Computer-based & online learning
4.Student Assignments
![Page 16: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Instructional Design
Instructional Design is the systematic development of instructional specifications using learning and instructional theory to ensure the quality of instruction. It is the entire process of analysis of learning needs and goals and the development of a delivery system to meet those needs. It includes development of instructional materials and activities; and tryout and evaluation of all instruction and learner activities.

Delivering PowerPoint Presentations
![Page 28: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Presentation Tips
1.Test your PowerPoint before giving it
2.Learn how to move from slide to slide
3.Use the “B” key (or the “W”) to turn the PPT off
4.Don’t be locked to your PPT or the podium
5.Use numbers to navigate your slides
![Page 29: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Some Rules of Thumb
1.PPT should support learning objectives 2.Avoid PowerPoint templates3.Avoid using more than one level of bullets4.Less is better: less words & less slides5.Avoid distracting clip art or unrelated images6.Avoid distracting slide transitions7.Use CARP to improve design8.Avoid using all CAPS9.Leverage multimedia: visual & audio when
appropriate10.Don’t let PowerPoint control your teaching

The Rules Change Online!
![Page 31: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The Rules Change Online
This slide is an example of what a PowerPoint slide online might look like:
More content is better onlineWhen developing PowerPoint presentations for online learning, the rules change. The number one reason is because your audience is now sitting right at a computer screen. Therefore, while the two central principles (i.e., sound instructional design and sound message design) remain important because learners often skim instead of read content online, the actual development of the PowerPoint presentation changes and becomes more like designing a webpage.
ImplicationsThe number one way this impacts faculty is by the fact that one presentation cannot and should not be used for classroom and online courses—that is, unless you are going to include audio or video to supplement the slides.
![Page 32: Creating Effective Presentations With PowerPoint](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052505/55519c1ab4c905013a8b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Rules Change Online
This slide is another example of what a PowerPoint slide online might look like:
InteractivityWhen developing PowerPoint presentations online, it is important to recognize and take advantage of the fact that your learner is now able to interact with your presentation. Therefore, including URL’s, video, audio, games, quizzes, can all strengthen your presentation as a learning experience.
BandwidthThe size of your files, images that you use, and any video components takes on new importance. As a general rule of thumb, it is hard to email anything over 4mb so you should strive to keep your PowerPoint presentations under 4mb.

1. Interactivity
2. MS Producer for PowerPoint
3. Articulate Presenter
4. Impatica for PowerPoint
5. Games
6. Digital Stories
We need to think of ways to get students to interact and actively engage in their learning.
Moving Beyond Text
MS Producer is a good tool if you want to add audio and video to your slides.
It is also free!
Articulate Presenter offers a seamless (but expensive) alternative to Producer. Also has quiz making tools.
Impatica is an easy tool to covert PowerPoint slides for the web.PowerPoint can used to create learning games to engage students online
Digital stories can be an effective way to build teacher presence online.
