Enemy Lurks in Briefings on Afghan War - PowerPoint - NYTimes.com - 1 views

shared by Rhys Daunic on 27 Apr 10 - Cached

PowerPoint’s worst offense is not a chart like the spaghetti graphic, which was first uncovered by NBC’s Richard Engel, but rigid lists of bullet points (in, say, a presentation on a conflict’s causes) that take no account of interconnected political, economic and ethnic forces.

behind all the PowerPoint jokes are serious concerns that the program stifles discussion, critical thinking and thoughtful decision-making.

“I have to make a storyboard complete with digital pictures, diagrams and text summaries on just about anything that happens,” Lieutenant Nuxoll told the Web site. “Conduct a key leader engagement? Make a storyboard. Award a microgrant? Make a storyboard.”

  Sounds like the exercise has become about the tool, and the tool is meant to stand in for someone who is putting the simplified/bulleted content in context. Powerpoint is not the enemy, it's being misused.

Sounds like the exercise has become about the tool, and the tool is meant to stand-in for someone who is putting the simplified/bulleted content in context. Powerpoint is not the enemy, it's being misused as a replacement for rigorous critical thinking around complex issues. It's a visual aide, not a complete platform for stand-alone communication.
