> HOW NOT TO POWERPOINT

PowerPoint can be a great tool to use in the classroom. It can also be easily abused. I know because I've done it. I've shown kids lessons with 20-40 slides in it. I couldn't figure out why they were falling asleep during my amazing PowerPoint show. I now use Guy Kawasaki's 10/20/30 rule whenever I put a PowerPoint presentation together. Although Guy's main focus is marketing his rational works for teachers as well.

Don McMillian has put together a funny video to show you some the of the perils of using PowerPoint.
