Universities should ban PowerPoint — It makes students stupid and professors boring - Paul Ralph, The Conversation
Do you really believe that watching a lecturer read hundreds of PowerPoint slides is making you smarter? I asked this of a class of 105 computer science and software engineering students last semester. An article in The Conversation argued universities should ban PowerPoint because it makes students stupid and professors boring.
I agree entirely.
