More Power Point Details

I encourage you to look more closely at the previous post and check out the URL from the item here, which gives you pictures and more info:We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint
By ELISABETH BUMILLER
PowerPoint has crept into the daily lives of U.S.
military commanders and reached the level of near obsession.

Power Point

I mentioned the danger of using power point and here is a quote for the New York Times on that subject:
"It's dangerous because it can create the illusion of understanding and the illusion of control. Some problems in the world are not bullet-izable."
- ARMY BRIG. GEN. H. R. McMASTER, on the growing use of PowerPoint presentations among
military commanders.
And a reminder that your assignment for next class is a one minute introduction to your home town. How do you get there from here? What do you like or dislike about it? What are some of the good and or bad features and attractions there?
There are some examples in the text and on the DVD which comes with it. Good Luck and see you next Wed.

Home Town Presentation

Next class you will make a one or two minute presentation talking about your home town. How do you get there and what is interesting about the place, or not.
