Using PowerPoint in a different way

As part of my workshop prep, I’ve been creating PowerPoints to help me teach the material to the students. It’s been a very interesting process. In the past I’ve always created a PowerPoint as a stand alone. The goal was for students to take the PowerPoint and use it on their own to learn the material. This time I’m creating slides that will appear while I speak, and I will point to images and definitions as I explain the subject. In some ways it’s easier; I don’t have to worry about clarity because I will be there to ensure students understand.
