Exploring the appropriateness of using PowerPoint in nursing education.
This article discusses the use of PowerPoint in nursing education. It argues that PowerPoint may not always be appropriate as a teaching and presentational tool, as it may fail to engage students. The article also argues that the software has become overused and both educators and students have become overly dependent on it. It is suggested that PowerPoint use becomes more limited and that educators and nurses find other ways in which to engage their audiences.
