Amount of informationAmount of information
Ockham’s razor: “entities are not to be multiplied beyond necessity”
Less is more A good rule of thumb: No more than 6 words per line.
No more than 6 lines per slide.
What do I really want them to know?
What can they see / read / take in?

Why use PowerPoint?Why use PowerPoint? PowerPoint allows me to reach students of different learning styles
because it adds a visual element to my oral presentation. This is especially important because today’s students seem to be more visual than other generations.
It helps reinforce the key information in my presentation and keeps student interest focused on the front of the room.
It allows me to give students clear prompts for their assignments, especially in-class assignments. They can always look up to refocus their attention to the assigned task.
A PowerPoint presentation can be moved directly to your web site so that students can look at it again after class and as many times as they want.
PowerPoint forces an instructor to organize his or her lecture and presentation material and keeps them on track and focused.
It serves as Ockham’s razor by helping me structure my thoughts.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . . .
A group of students, working together, have managed to reach a new galaxy, and are looking for ‘nirvana’ there.
It is a period of peace, with explorers setting off
to find and study new ideas.
You are those students, and you have to decide where you will
touch down to look for ‘nirvana’. . . .
