When I first started using PowerPoint, I put way too much on the slides. Now
I use it as a brief outline with some graphics, etc. It is especially useful
in my stats class. I post the PowerPoint lectures on my webpage, using three
slides to a page. This gives students room to jot down notes on the rest of
the page. I get very favorable responses from students about PowerPoint. When
I first started posting them on my website, attendance dropped off
temporarily. Now I make sure they understand that the slide printouts are no
substitute for attendance.
