Cancer Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Re: The Last Word Yeah, I use the blackboard a lot. In the Astro 101 class, I keep a bunch of images on my thumb drive and show those over the screen that other folks would use for their PowerPoints. But they are individual image files, not the bondage-to-tunnel-vision-logic enforced by the PowerPoint thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of them are from NASA Planetary Photojournal, things I've picked off as useful or enlightening. And I keep the images rather than links because I've been in too many rooms where there was a display but no hot outlink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
