In chapter two of, Burmark’s (2011), “They
Snooze You Loose”, she emphasis the use of techniques that will allow the
targeted audience to either laugh, cry but most importantly achieve learning
(p. 26). As an educator it is my goal to succeed in attaining the
learners attention and present the information as efficiently as possible.
I found in reading the chapter that since the PowerPoint software automatically converts the slides into handouts it is important not to display too much information on the screen, only the key points. Burmark (2011), further explains, “that handout compliments rather than replicates the slides,” (p. 32). In using this technique it will benefit my audience if I provided them with handouts at the beginning of the session and included reference books, articles or websites with detail information so they don't have to frantically take notes and they would more easily follow along.
