I feel that PowerPoint lectures are the student’s gold mine of information. When I preset a PowerPoint lecture, I always give the students a copy of the lecture that has fill in the blanks spots so that the students keep their attention. It all falls back on the old teaching styles, see, hear, touch and do. With PowerPoint presentations you give the students a chance to meet all of their learning styles. I have received fee back from my Dean that my classes quiz and test scores are above regular for the class size. So, I support and defend PowerPoint lectures.
