Please join us Monday, September 10, in the Reilley Room, from 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. as Adjunct Professor of Communications, Leslie Streissguth offers information on how to properly communicate your message to an audience using PowerPoint.

“Make slides that reinforce your words, not repeat them”.  Seth Godin, PowerPoint guru

“When I was 14 -years-old, I made this PowerPoint presentation, and I invited my parents into my room and gave them popcorn. It was called ‘Project Hollywood 2004’ and it worked. I moved to L.A. in January of 2004.”   Emma Stone

That being said, what does he (Seth Godin) really mean? And, if we create good PowerPoints, will we become famous and glamorous Hollywood idols like Emma Stone?  Let’s find out together in a mini course that looks at PowerPoint and all that it can do for our ideas, and MAYBE our future plans!

Learn about some of the ways Le Moyne is getting involved in these social spaces, see some ideas of ways you can create content that will engage your fans and followers, and make sure you are putting your best online image forward. We'll talk about contributing to "official" college channels, as well as your personal accounts.

Since the days when Socrates was inciting the nation’s youth, elders have looked at juniors with curiosity and concern, and juniors have returned the favor.  Whether in our speech, our business methods or our technology, new generations have all changed the workplace, and history will likely show it was for the better...but that doesn’t necessarily mean it was without incidents!
