Technical presentations aren't supposed to be fancy, they are supposed to be technical.

... and fancy

agreed

Ariana

... and fancy

no

Raul

My interview presentations literally had a while background, a generic header, and had very little text on them.

Raul

I also gave a presentation to NASA and I had very little text, plain slides, and some pictures. I was told by that group of people that it was the best presentation they have seen in that conference for a long time.

you know when you need actual presentations there isnt any good alternatives to powerpoint:/

LaTeX and beamer

Raul

LaTex is definitely a good alternative

Ariana

LaTeX and beamer

animations

Ariana

also latex and beamer takes up horrific amount of space

Ariana

(i use it too for math-only presentation)

Ludovic 'Archivist'

animations

Animations are the worst way to pass meaning

Ariana

*videos

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Never use animations

Ariana

When trying to explain a physical phenomenon

Ariana

or a reaction mechanism

Raul

Why don't you just embed a video into it that links to YouTube?

Ariana

basically when teaching kids

Ariana

Why don't you just embed a video into it that links to YouTube?

WIFI

Ariana

is trash in my school

Ludovic 'Archivist'

*videos

You can add videos in latex

media9

Ariana

actly.-.

Ariana

oh gosh

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Even if I ever used it once

Ludovic 'Archivist'

For a meme

Ariana

oh no...

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Two ways of making a presentation memorable are making the audience laugh and making the audience laugh

Ariana

but imo powerpoint is better for like teaching kids and like some lower-end targets, but if talking to professionals no one needs animations and videos usually

Ariana

unless a video editing presentation then welp

Harut

Kids will learn less effectively with videos in reality

Ludovic 'Archivist'

The best way is making them do the things

Ariana

kids not lke actual kids, like say high school

Ludovic 'Archivist'

kids not lke actual kids, like say high school

I know

Ariana

For like org chem, physics, stuff like that

Ariana

The best way is making them do the things

How would you explain like an organic chemistry mechanism

Ariana

Other than whiteboard, but i really want a blackboard

Ludovic 'Archivist'

How would you explain like an organic chemistry mechanism

Make them make soap to explain esterification

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Make them put a grid atop a flame to explain combustion (as the grid will prevent the oxygen to reach the top of the escaping gases, it will make a cylindrical flame, showing the reaction uses oxygen)

Ludovic 'Archivist'

It doesn't require expensive stuff to teach high school physics

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Well, except when stuff starts requiring interferometers

Ariana

Make them make soap to explain esterification

.-.

Ariana

You know those nonsense rearrangement trash

Ariana

Those are explained better with animations

Ariana

Well, except when stuff starts requiring interferometers

I built one for like $5

Ariana

:>

Ariana

it took 2 damn month

Ariana

of pain

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Those are explained better with animations

And even better with molecular models made of balls and sticks

Ariana

and pain

Ariana

and shouting at circuits

Ariana

And even better with molecular models made of balls and sticks

-.-

Ariana

uh

Ludovic 'Archivist'

One day our biology teacher entered the class (late, he always arrived late) and gave us binoculars magnifiers and vitrified flies and just told us: those are parents, those are children, figure out genetics

Ariana

ohwow

Ludovic 'Archivist'

He then left to grab a coffee

Ludovic 'Archivist'

Well, he also told us to write what we saw and that it would be graded

Ariana
