Howard Rheingold"At about the same time, the presentation style known as “pecha kucha” emerged. Pecha kucha solves the death-by-Powerpoint problem by introducing constraints: 20 slides, set to auto-advance every 20 seconds. You wouldn’t want to make up your mind about, say, the viability of the public option in US healthcare via such a method, but it’s a fun and lightweight way to manage presentations.

A couple of years ago, I found myself teaching a section of a class that mandated a PowerPoint presentation. (That is, to keep my section aligned with the others, I had to require such a presentation.) Such presentations have some common problems: they’re too long; the student doesn’t seem interested in the topic; there’s too much information on each slide; and they’re under-rehearsed–the last two problems join forces and encourage the student to simply read aloud from the sides. Plus, you know, PowerPoint is evil. So, I was looking around for an alternative.

What’s useful about the form is that speed (OMG! 20 sec / slide!) becomes a proxy for enthusiasm, and so students perk up a bit.
