The things that make you insane
Aug. 17th, 2005 10:47 pmSo we're all worried (justifiable so) about what graphics we can put in our powerpoints AND still put them up on webct for the students since let's face it, copyright free science graphics barely exist (I spent over 2 hours at the sites I found to discover this fact) I'm not to worried about making these initial copies and handing them out hard copy but it obviously a concern. No one has a suggestion.
Then they hand me the cd roms that go with my text books that allow us this limited use of their graphics PLUS all the lectures are already power pointed. So I've been making my head explode for...no real reason. Now, I'm assuming the power points aren't the best or else we'd all be using them and putting no thought into our lectures. My question is (I'll do it during office hours because the cd-roms hate my computer and vice versa) can I take their power points, and ADD to them my own.
I have the new faculty meeting tomorrow all morning. Worse on friday is meetings ALL day. My co-workers are ticked because well, they needed the time for themselves and getting some pizza thrown at you after 6 hours of meetings isn't much compensation. Sigh.
