      This is my number one point, learned previously. Having a remote clicker and moving among the students changes the entire dynamic of the class. I need to do this more.

      Great idea for my small classes and seminars. I just ended a class of 6 students, and the screen at the front of the room seemed distant. We sat around a conference table and a smaller setting with a TV monitor would have worked better. Just did not ever think of it.
  • The audience is. It’s in their power to embrace — or reject — your ideas.

      I face multi-tasking, over-burdened and tiredness resistance from the audience of students, commonly. They students have too much on their plates and too many distractions. So, perhaps this falls into practical resistance. There is not always a "reward" like comp time at the end.
  • discuss ideas or concepts

      Okay, I am taking this to heart. I believe I have to go on a PowerPoint Bullet DIet.
  • most presenters will spend 99 percent of their time preparing the content and slides, and very little—if any—on understanding and controlling their body language

      I've struggled with using animations for transitions and lists. Now I read it may not be worth it. Yeah, back to basics and keep it simple.

      This is when I move the cut text or additional text notes to the "Notes" section of the powerpoint, below the slide shot. Then, I like to print-out the slides to show the notes for my presentation.

  • The blurred backgrounds set off the stark white illustrations for quick visual processing:

      I do not have an artisticy background, but I now think this blurred background image will be a use ful tool.
  • You can achieve this through consistent type styles, color, image treatment, and element placement throughout the slide deck.

      Another artistic point of placement and imagery through cohesiveness. I worry that I do not have the natural talent to put this together on my own, but I do see the real difference.

      This is how my students learn about landmark Supreme Ct. cases: Miranda, Brown v. Bd. of Educ. The stories of who were the people, what happened, how did it end. Stories are our communication tool, since caveman days!

      Why use note cards, when the PPT has a notes area and then you can print the slides with the notes to read or review.
