Presenting in the classroom and beyond
[Tufte, 2006]

Understanding follows from dividing out what’s relevant and minimizing use of jargons and excessive text (bullets)
[Marshall, 2012]

Rethinking the Designof Presentation Slides

Water from the jet engine’s exhaust creates contrails that float in the atmosphere

The defaults of PowerPoint are not based on researchin communication or cognitive psychology
[Gomes, 2007]
Poor starting place
![Page 5: Presenting in the classroom and beyond](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062321/56812bb4550346895d8ff32c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Our research has found that most slides are heavily influenced by these defaults
[Garner et al., 2009]
Our Decision
Do not reprocess in the United States
Do not send spent fuel to France for reprocessing.
Wait for GNEP and new reprocessing methods to be developed.Less chance for the proliferation of nuclear
weapons.
New technology uses recycled fuel more efficiently.
Too much text
40%

Micro-compression
• MTS Nano Indenter XP– Modified Berkovich Indenter
– Load applied with coil/magnet assembly
• Load Resolution 50nN
– Displacement measured with capacitance gauge
• Sub nm displacement resolution
• Specimen – 300 nm to 20 μm diameter
– fixed base
Our research has found that most slides are heavily influenced by these defaults
[Garner et al., 2009]
Too much text: crowded
25%

The past few years, this common practice of PowerPoint has received harsh criticism

Several recent texts have challenged the defaults of PowerPoint

[Sawarynski, 2009]
The structure calls for a succinct sentence headline that states the main assertion of the slide
[Toulmin, 2002][Alley et al., 2006]
The small size of the mouse brain makes locating specific areas extremely difficult

The structure also calls for supporting that sentence-assertion headline with visual evidence

A third hurdle in adopting the assertion−evidence structure is to overcome the weak defaults of PowerPoint

Although researchers give validation more attention, validation requires successful verification
Validation
Is the PDE model appropriate?
Do we solve the right equations?
Verification
Are the numerical models correctly implemented?
Do we solve the right equations?
