At an education conference I was at a couple of years ago that focused on IT solutions in the learning environment, one panel’s title was “Death by PowerPoint.” It was packed, because we’d all experienced it.

I agree with James, dynamic presentations having the audience participate. MindManager. You can also do that with a tablet and PPT using inking functions, but leave the slides open-ended enough to allow for participation, emphasis, illustrations, responses, etc. MindManager is easier because you have the whole presentation up at once, and it unfolds as you proceed with your group participating. It can be quickly emended as you work.

What an awesome idea -- to dynamically mind map your presentation. I'm going to think very seriously about doing this for my next talk. Thanks!
