Death by PowerPoint: the slide that killed seven people — mcdreeamie-musings

We’ve all sat in those presentations. A speaker with a stream of slides full of text, monotonously reading them off as we read along. We’re so used to it we expect it. We accept it. We even consider it ‘learning’. As an educator I push against ‘death by PowerPoint’ and I'm fascinated with how we

my war on death by powerpoint continues. I have taken to adopting guerrilla techniques. I have decided that best way to stop everyone from asking me to build a slide deck is introducing new acronyms in sneaky manner. In today's meeting I introduced a new term during a slide.

For those wanting to avail themselves of my services, I do offer SaaS ( Sarcasm as a Service ).
