Is Power Point Crippling our students ?
I feel this can be a yes and no answer ! As an instructor I've used PowerPoint to stay on task as it pertains to class room time. I also use it as a tool for students to stay on track. Some students get lost for what ever reason, sleeping in class talking or just plain bored and zoned out for a few minutes. I believe if used properly PowerPoint can be beneficial to both students and educators. It seems as if the author of this article Kathy Johnson has some fear of being replaced by technology. If this is the case I would say to her that technology should be embraced and the fear will soon fade.
