#Learn PowerPoint Presentation

[vykerr]

I was watching a video on youtube from an Australian current affairs documentary type program, when I was suddenly blindsided by this screen.

(Referencing how this was cut from the g1 cartoon, which is a shame because that would have been hilarious )

HEY FOLKS!

sooooo. remember when i was posting about being up way too late for a powerpoint thing i was doing with friends? yeah i'm posting that final powerpoint now.

allow me to introduce you all to...

THE KOMAHINA BIBLE

(aka a demonstration in unmedicated ADHD)

120 slides. 163 MB. somewhere between 14 and 22 hours of work. sleep deprivation. influence from @anonzentimes , respected komahina scholar. this bad baby has it all this is a powerpoint presentation summarizing and analyzing just about everything you need to know about komahina in sdr2 (and a bit from adjacent media as well). we go in-depth and we prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that komahina real and love wins (loses?)

WARNING: THIS CONTAINS MAJOR END-GAME SPOILERS FOR SDR2 (AS WELL AS DR1). IF YOU WISH TO REMAIN SPOILER-FREE (OR YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO KEEP SPOILER FREE (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE)) THEN DO NOT VIEW THIS POWERPOINT PRESENTATION UNTIL YOU KNOW. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU HAVING BEEN SPOILED

ok cool! some other things to keep in mind under the cut:

THIS IS LIGHTHEARTED THIS IS LIGHTHEARTED THIS IS LIGHTHEARTED. IF YOU DO NOT SHIP KOMAHINA THAT'S LITERALLY SO FINE I KNOW THERE IS KOMAEDA SEXUALITY DISCOURSE GOING ON RN FOR SOME GODFORSAKEN REASON KNOW THAT I DO NOT THINK EVERYONE HAS TO SHIP KOMAHINA PLEASE I'M LITERALLY A MULTISHIPPER PLEASE. PLEASE DO NOT CRUCIFY ME FOR FUNNY YAOI POWERPOINT

i made this powerpoint in two sittings across 2 days, each sitting about 8-12 hours long

i got about 7 total hours of sleep in that time. not for each day- total. i was mad scientist delirious by the end of this

originally, i wanted to include far more- i wanted to analyze other media in depth (like the stageplays, the drama CD, komaeda's official songs, and even official art and materials) but i did not have the time for it. maybe i will make a new testament powerpoint detailing these as well as fandom analysis but that is not currently in the works

this is a presentation! as such the intended way to consume it is As A Presentation! unfortunately i am not someone who records videos so i cannot present it to you. if you would like to present it to you feel free. if you would like to present it to your friends feel free. if you would like to present it to the internet i'm honored but would like for you to talk to me about it first. cool

the original target audience for this was my friends and not all of them are anime people so. i am using the more english-friendly terms (as well as first names). i don't think this will bug any of you but i'm making it clear anyways

all art included in the presentation is credited with a caption linking back directly to the original artist's account. if you see your art in here and you do not want your art in here: let me know! i will take it down immediately and without question.

i may have missed some details/glossed over some things! if you think i've made a mistake somewhere or have missed something important, talk to me about it! i'd love to discuss it and if i make the new testament sequel powerpoint then i will include your corrections at the beginning :)

a lot of the jokes i make happen in the transitions of this powerpoint. some of them use audio- click on the little speaker icon to play the audio and time the animations yourself i suppose. i'd recommend playing it as a slideshow ^-^

have any questions about a particular point i make? ask me! i will elaborate for you

ok that's all i can think of!! have fun folks :]

Annabeth: I think it's pretty good but it could be better. Because right now you're making a lot of good points but they're just facts, just data. How can you make that data resonate more with the audience and actually get us to come out wanting to engage in more ancient traditions and festivals?

Jason, who cannot comprehend that people might not be interested in the facts of his presentation on ancient Greek festivals and practices for CHB to start engaging in like how New Rome handles Roman holidays:

Annabeth: I mean think about the purpose of this presentation.

Jason:

Jason, points at his title slide: To learn about ancient Greek festivals and traditions.

Annabeth: Right, but what's the end goal?

Jason:

Jason, points at his title slide again: Learning.

4 Tips on presenting to an ESL audience (from an ESL librarian)

1. Speak slowly, in short sentences, and pronounce each word carefully.

Speaking louder isn’t nearly as helpful as speaking slowly unless you know the ESL person is also hard of hearing.

2. Whenever possible, use written words on a whiteboard or PowerPoint presentation

Written words are often the strongest reference for learners of a new language.

3. Avoid using idioms, as they rarely translate with the same meaning into other languages.

An ESL person will also be less likely to know the meaning of English-specific idioms.

4. Avoid phrasal verbs.

E.g. “look up” or “look out” in which the meaning is idiomatic and has little or no resemblance with that of the principal verb; instead, use one-word equivalents such as “search,” “careful,” etc.

Crazy to think that sometimes our parents can change for the better.

When I was 14, my mom was quite homophobic, and cried when one of our neighbours started transitioning.

Last night, she called me to ask for advice on how she can improve with pronoun usage to make her staff feel comfortable at work being themselves.

They aren't all out of reach, folks.

Love constantly showing up to the submission deadline at the last minute with my dozens more than necessary references. Like sure, I have poor time management, but at least I did the research

[fiona-fififi]

I don't know if it's just my background, but every time I attend professional development seminars on DEI, they sure do seem basic as hell.

And I do actually think this is due to my background because I do have more than a passing understanding of diversity theory because of my fields of study. But like. the fact that there really are so many college instructors who are teaching courses that require content on diversity and/or global understandings (and where I am this includes essentially all courses in the humanities and social sciences) but have very little understanding of diversity theory is disconcerting to me.

Especially because I truly think most of the people attending these professional development seminars on diversity are NOT the people who need them, but rather the people who already do have this base knowledge, while the educators who would really benefit from them avoid them at all costs.

And I am NOT saying that participating in these seminars can't be valuable for those of us who already have the background—it is always a positive to brush up on information, learn about additional research, and hear more perspectives.

I just wish more educators who really need to build a better understanding of diversity would actually participate in these opportunities as well.
