Feel like...

I'm sitting in the computer lab at work waiting for my students to show up. It's a Friday afternoon class and, with the wind chill, it's -22. I doubt anyone will actually come. I know I wouldn't, especially since they didn't have class this morning. There were only two people in my morning class (out of a possible 9).

EDIT: They pretty much all showed up.

I've been thinking about how to teach PowerPoint and I've come to the conclusion you've got to teach how to organization a presentation first. The tools you use to actually create a presentation is fairly easy. So now I'm getting them to read articles online, answer questions, categorize those questions and finally create a presentation. Hopefully they'll see the process and use it in the future.
