It wasn't the way I was taught, either. Now however, it is the way to
teach. Further, as a graduate student and assistant to a professor, I get
really annoyed at those instructors who do not utilize the technology. I
remember long hours sitting in the slide library studying for exams as an
undergrad. Get real, I don't have that kind of free time. Put the images
on CD, load them onto the class web page and let me scan through them at
home after my kid goes to sleep.

Dear list,
I am interested in this topic as well and I think I missed the reply posts.
I teach at a community college and we don't have a slide collection --
instructors have been responsible for the making, storage and maintenance of
their slides for years -- I've inherited a disparate group of slides from
the previous instructor. I have received funding to purchase cameras,
copystands, etc. but our Learning and Resource Center is pushing for me to
go digital.
I think I am old-fashioned because I am resistant to this -- that wasn't the
way I was taught! But seriously, is digital the way to go?
The Library and Media folks also recommend Power Point presentations...but I
am reluctant to inflict death by Power Point upon my students.
Thanks!
Bernida Webb
