		<description>Call me a troublemaker, but Powerpoint isn&#039;t such a bad thing -- when used correctly.  The problem is that most people don&#039;t have a clue about when PPT is best used, and how to use it best.  

As they say, &quot;telling ain&#039;t training,&quot; and helping our volunteer presenters, panelists, and facilitators to learn better ways to get their point across is our responsibility.

It&#039;s a slow shift,  but we&#039;ll get there!</description>

		<description>Thanks for the link and more importantly thanks for making me think about this even further. 

After reading the post, I am left with the following question: why have we always done it this way? At what point did such a potentially useful and powerful tool become so misused? Why are folks so intent on propagating bad practices at the expense of their audience instead of challenging status quo and doing things right?

Much to think about on this subject and even more to think about regarding how to fix it. One small area that could have a potentially large/positive impact if it can be addressed, even if it&#039;s only done on presenter/presentation at a time.</description>
