EDTC 6340-Chapter Two Creating slides and handouts

Chapter two mentions how to create slides and what type of handouts to use why creating a power point presentation.   I could relate to this chapter because I took a class last semester and throughout the course we had to create and reflect each chapter read through power point presentations.  Some presentations were boring due to the presenter reading word by word.  Following the power point presentation there was also a ten to fifteen page handout.   The power points that I remember were the ones with colorful images, less wording and not much redundancy.   Now I see why the presenter did not lose their audience, because she used the correct skills that are needed in order to have presentable power point presentations.  As far as using handouts the students would email us the presentation prior to the date and this will eliminate the use of handouts.  This was just a few students that actually had good power point presentations.
