What makes a bad Powerpoint?
What makes a bad Powerpoint?
In your teams:
1. One of the strengths of this presentation is that it uses a lot of high quality photographs that Tariq took himself. Choose one of those photographs that particularly caught your attention. Why did you notice it? What did it make you feel or think? How did the visual enhance or connect to what Tariq was saying?
2. What sorts of visuals did Tariq use other than photographs? Which of them did you find particularly effective? Why?
3. What do you notice about his use of color here. How does he use it to enhance his presentation?
In your teams:
1. Share with each other your ideas that you brought for your visuals. How do you feel about the ideas you've come up with?
2. Brainstorm together how you can make your visuals more creative. What could you do to make them more interesting than just simple photographs and text? How can you use color, relative position on the slide, or animation or other strategies to help your listeners understand your ideas?

1. What stands out to you about the visuals here? What emotions does this video create for you and how does it do that? What symbols
2. Some of the camera angles in this video are fairly unusual (not conventional shots with the person centered and/or seen from the waist up). Why do you think the director chose these shots? How do they shift what we notice about the images?
3. Considering the video and the lyrics here, how do you read this as a response to Lemonade? What messages is Jay Z sending about his own feelings about his infideltiy?
4. Beyoncé's video also spoke to the experience of black women. What messages might this video send about the experience of black men?
You have 15 minutes to find a place in the room or the hall to practice your delivery and give each other feedback. I'll be coming around to see how you're doing.
Dr. Seuss Speech Sins
1. Pass the book around having each person read 2 pages while exaggerating their speech sin as much as they can
