@Dan -- your blog post brought back memories in the redundancy section. I too had a professor that read to us in graduate school. I adored this lady, but the reading to us was PAINFUL. I even did a presentation on the pitfalls of PPT and noted paragraphs on the slide and reading to the audience was a no-no. I felt bad for a little while because she got the hint and stopped....for one class.
@Montise--are you trying to torture us OCD people?
@Nick--thanks for the SOUND warning...I'm pretty sure my entire office is wide awake now.
@Sophia--I often argue about paragraphs of text on a PPT slide. And the rebuttal usually is....'well, if we use it for a handout...' That's where the ID in me comes out to remind that person that PPT slides ARE NOT intended to be used as handouts.
@all of you who assaulted my eyes, ears and brain....you did a GREAT job! But please stop the spinning...ok, I'm dizzy now, thanks.
I used to have a screen shot of an actual course slide that was completely visually assaulting, but I cannot find it. It was GOLDEN.
Here's my contribution to the madness: bit.ly/1i742w7
