Power(ful) Pointing

If you'd like to see PowerPoint taken to another level, check out this online article by Ken Costello. He uses a lot of motion in some of his slides, and he discusses some appropriate ways to use PowerPoint (not for lecture notes!). I think he has some good thoughts on the matter, although I think he must spend a lot of time creating them and I believe one might be better off finding other simulations/animations to insert in a presentation instead. You can download many of his presentations at his Chem 130 Homepage.

    Thanks for the resource, Steve. I went through his article and a couple of his presentations. You're right. Creating these presentations must be his hobby. Of course, if they're done well the first time, you don't need to keep tweaking it every time it's used.

    Did you see the Barriers to Learning ppt? Valid information for the student
