Welcome back to Season 3 and Episode 11! We have been away from the recording studio for several weeks due to the COVID-19 Outbreak and today are excited to be recording our session from home. Thank you Zach and Asha for your production work behind the scenes.

In this episode, we are focusing on the Pear Deck add-on available for Google Slides and Microsoft PowerPoint.  Many educators and presenters in the business world share their content using Slides and PowerPoint which certainly helps by providing supporting visuals, charts, and text.  The thing is - the audience is passively receiving the information with barely any interaction with the presenter.  Yes, laughs, nods, and gasps count as interaction - but there is no interaction with the speaker in terms of questions, comments, agreements, and other responses.
