In the article "Beyond Bullet Points" by Cliff Atkinson it talks about an effective method to designing PowerPoint presentations. While reading this article, it was mainly a refresher for me in terms of content. I recognized much of the content information such as the sensory, working, and long-term memory from my psychology class that I took in high school. I am also aware of the "pipleline" method of communicating and the "noise" that affects the communication process. I was also aware of the philosophy of Richard Mayer, since he was idolized by a previous teacher of mine. Even knowing all of this information, I was unable to connect it all and look at it from the perspective that was presented in this article. I was really intrigued by the representation of the communication process via the "eye of the needle." I thought it was a great visual representation of the communication process and the level of retaining information.
