UGH not a PowerPoint



UGH not a PowerPoint

My top five pet peeves when dealing with PowerPoint are…
  1. Way too many graphs and pictures on each side, creating a great challenge for A.D.D students to follow along
  2. When there is too much information on each side so then the professor literally just reads off the slide. Instead of simply emphasizing the key point and just putting those facts on the slide.
  3. Poor choice of font color, either too light or too dark depending on the background
  4. Spinning letters that created words
  5. Unorganized power point, an in cohesive flow of information

I have however seen some great PowerPoint presentations in my day. I really enjoy those PowerPoints that provide really great information with coordinating videos that help the onlooker to better understand the information. Entertaining videos are always the best way to go.

Monday

CTL

OK so I had no idea that such a place like CLT existed last year. I was thoroughly impressed with all the programing and computer system that are available to trinity students FOR FREE. I am really excited to know of such a legitimate place where I can get some great help and advice when it come to working and navigating the technological world, I'm not so savvy in that department. I am planning on being a communications major and I am very excited to know of a place especially here on campus where I will be able to work on future project and presentations in my upper division classes that I'm sure will require the assistance of the mass software available in CLT. 

PHOTO SHOPPING... pick out a face

    I LOVE this picture it is hilarious. This is a picture of the jackalope, a faux animal. With their digitally altered antlers, the jackalope  is created to posses the image of being  highly aggressive. Because they are willing to use their antlers to fight the jackalope is at times referred to as the "warrior rabbit." This digitally altered picture creates the image that the jackalope's are scanning the mountain plains. 
    In the same token I do not personally have a problem with digitally altered photographs, as long as the reporter acknowledges somewhere that an alteration has taken place. below is a video of using photoshop to enhance the appearance of Angelina Jolie.
