I don't wanna do a stupid PowerPoint...

Anyone else think that PowerPoint presentations are pointless? I mean what purpose do they serve in a persons education...it's like an easier and less creative version of the diorama (which I still love btw). If we actually would use them correctly I think it is a valuable tool but when you get stuck with people who have no idea what to do it can get frustrating.

Now I will admit that I am not great at making PowerPoint presentations...actually I think my are pretty boring but that's because I think that you, the speaker, should be the focus of the speech or presentation. This however, is not always the case.

I do not like it when people read from the slides and don't really know the information. The problem is that everyone has done this at one point or another because we get stuck doing a PowerPoint of a topic we have either no interest in or a topic we know NOTHING about...this annoys me on so many different levels. I will admit that it has gotten better in college but being forced to do them still sucks.

Anyway that's one of my rants about the education system that we have...no real solution though so I guess it's me just complaining.

I really don't want to do that group project...>.<
