in class - powerpoint

I can see where Tufte is coming from, and agree that PowerPoint can be bad for young children when they are just starting out reading and learning. I don’t think PowerPoint is all bad; I like PowerPoints and their pictures and colors and what not, for me if you put a picture with information I will now register that picture with the information and remember it better. PowerPoints with all information and no visuals are boring to me and I will tend to become less focused on it. I don’t think PowerPoint is all evil, it can be bad for elementary kids just starting out but in colleges, high schools, businesses, it can be very helpful.
