Although most presentation designers who are familiar with both formats prefer to work in the more elegant Keynote system, those same designers will tell you that the majority of their client work is done in PowerPoint. Consistent with its association with Steve Jobs’s keynotes, a response to this style has been that it is particularly effective for “ballroom-style presentations” as often given in conference center ballrooms where a celebrated and practiced speaker addresses a large passive audience, but less appropriate for “conference room-style presentations” which are often recurring internal business meetings for in-depth discussion with motivated counterparts.

A third reaction to PowerPoint use was to conclude that the standard style is capable of being used well, but that many small points need to be executed carefully, to avoid impeding understanding. This kind of analysis is particularly associated with Stephen Kosslyn , a cognitive neuroscientist who specializes in the psychology of learning and visual communication, and who has been head of the department of psychology at Harvard, has been Director of Stanford’s Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, and has published some papers and 14 books.

Kosslyn presented a set of psychological principles of “human perception, memory, and comprehension” that “appears to capture the major points of agreement among researchers. For this reason, Kosslyn says, users need specific education to be able to identify best ways to avoid “flaws and failures”: []. Specifically, we hypothesized and found that the psychological principles are often violated in PowerPoint slideshows across different fields These studies converge in painting the following picture: PowerPoint presentations are commonly flawed; some types of flaws are more common than others; flaws are not isolated to one domain or context; and, although some types of flaws annoy the audience, flaws at the level of slide design are not always obvious to an untrained observer The many “flaws and failures” identified were those “likely to disrupt the comprehension or memory of the material.

Kosslyn observes that these findings could help to explain why the many studies of the instructional effectiveness of PowerPoint have been inconclusive and conflicting, if there were differences in the quality of the presentations tested in different studies that went unobserved because “many may feel that ‘good design’ is intuitively clear.

In Kosslyn wrote a book about PowerPoint, in which he suggested a very large number of fairly modest changes to PowerPoint styles and gave advice on recommended ways of using PowerPoint. In fact, this medium is a remarkably versatile tool that can be extraordinarily effective.

For many purposes, PowerPoint presentations are a superior medium of communication, which is why they have become standard in so many fields.

In , an online poll of social media users in the UK was reported to show that PowerPoint “remains as popular with young tech-savvy users as it is with the Baby Boomers,” with about four out of five saying that “PowerPoint was a great tool for making presentations,” in part because “PowerPoint, with its capacity to be highly visual, bridges the wordy world of yesterday with the visual future of tomorrow.

Also in , the Managerial Communication Group of MIT Sloan School of Management polled their incoming MBA students, finding that “results underscore just how differently this generation communicates as compared with older workers. Two-thirds report that they present on a daily or weekly basis—so it’s no surprise that in-person presentations is the top skill they hope to improve. The trend is toward presentations and slides, and we don’t see any sign of that slowing down.

Use of PowerPoint by the U. By , ten years after PowerPoint for Windows appeared, it was already identified as an important feature of U. Old-fashioned slide briefings, designed to update generals on troop movements, have been a staple of the military since World War II. But in only a few short years PowerPoint has altered the landscape. Just as word processing made it easier to produce long, meandering memos, the spread of PowerPoint has unleashed a blizzard of jazzy but often incoherent visuals.

Instead of drawing up a dozen slides on a legal pad and running them over to the graphics department, captains and colonels now can create hundreds of slides in a few hours without ever leaving their desks.

If the spirit moves them they can build in gunfire sound effects and images that explode like land mines. PowerPoint has become such an ingrained part of the defense culture that it has seeped into the military lexicon.

After another 10 years, in and again on its front page the New York Times reported that PowerPoint use in the military was then “a military tool that has spun out of control”: []. Like an insurgency, PowerPoint has crept into the daily lives of military commanders and reached the level of near obsession.

The amount of time expended on PowerPoint, the Microsoft presentation program of computer-generated charts, graphs and bullet points, has made it a running joke in the Pentagon and in Iraq and Afghanistan. Commanders say that behind all the PowerPoint jokes are serious concerns that the program stifles discussion, critical thinking and thoughtful decision-making.

Not least, it ties up junior officers The New York Times account went on to say that as a result some U. James N. He spoke without PowerPoint. McMaster , who banned PowerPoint presentations when he led the successful effort to secure the northern Iraqi city of Tal Afar in , followed up at the same conference by likening PowerPoint to an internal threat. Several incidents, about the same time, gave wide currency to discussions by serving military officers describing excessive PowerPoint use and the organizational culture that encouraged it.

Kosslyn sent a joint letter to the editor stressing the institutional culture of the military: ” The problem is not in the tool itself, but in the way that people use it—which is partly a result of how institutions promote misuse. The two generals who had been mentioned in as opposing the institutional culture of excessive PowerPoint use were both in the news again in , when James N.

Mattis became U. Secretary of Defense, [] and H. McMaster was appointed as U. National Security Advisor. It started off as a joke this software is a symbol of corporate salesmanship, or lack thereof but then the work took on a life of its own as I realized I could create pieces that were moving, despite the limitations of the ‘medium. In Byrne toured with a theater piece styled as a PowerPoint presentation.

When he presented it in Berkeley, on March 8, , the University of California news service reported: “Byrne also defended its [PowerPoint’s] appeal as more than just a business tool—as a medium for art and theater. Berkeley alumnus Bob Gaskins and Dennis Austin Eventually, Byrne said, PowerPoint could be the foundation for ‘presentational theater,’ with roots in Brechtian drama and Asian puppet theater.

I was terrified. The expressions “PowerPoint Art” or ” pptArt ” are used to define a contemporary Italian artistic movement which believes that the corporate world can be a unique and exceptional source of inspiration for the artist.

The wide use of PowerPoint had, by , given rise to ” PowerPoint Viewer is the name for a series of small free application programs to be used on computers without PowerPoint installed, to view, project, or print but not create or edit presentations. The first version was introduced with PowerPoint 3.

Beginning with PowerPoint , a feature called “Package for CD” automatically managed all linked video and audio files plus needed fonts when exporting a presentation to a disk or flash drive or network location, [] and also included a copy of a revised PowerPoint Viewer application so that the result could be presented on other PCs without installing anything.

The latest version that runs on Windows “was created in conjunction with PowerPoint , but it can also be used to view newer presentations created in PowerPoint and PowerPoint All transitions, videos and effects appear and behave the same when viewed using PowerPoint Viewer as they do when viewed in PowerPoint As of May [update] , the last versions of PowerPoint Viewer for all platforms have been retired by Microsoft; they are no longer available for download and no longer receive security updates.

PowerPoint Online. Early versions of PowerPoint, from through versions 1. A stable binary format called a. It was based on the Compound File Binary Format. The “. Binary filename extensions []. Binary media types []. XML filename extensions []. XML media types []. The standardization process was contentious. PowerPoint version The reason for the two variants was explained by Microsoft: []. The first objective was for the Open XML standard to provide an XML-based file format that could fully support conversion of the billions of existing Office documents without any loss of features, content, text, layout, or other information, including embedded data.

The second was to specify a file format that did not rely on Microsoft-specific data types. They created two variants of Open XML—Transitional, which supports previously-defined Microsoft-specific data types, and Strict, which does not rely on them.

This lack of rigorous studies and empirical research is surprising given the enormous complexity and importance of the PowerPoint tool. Mayer is concerned with how to present information in ways that help people understand, including how to use words and pictures to explain scientific and mathematical concepts. But that convention is no longer wise in the light of research that shows that even that amount of text on a slide can be a recipe for information overload.
