The presentation of yesterday on product design was boring, the normal man couldn’t handle that. Kevin Henry made yesterday’s lecture so boring I actually almost fell asleep that’s the first time I done that in about five years. The ideas he presented were interesting but it was so boring how his tone was. It was not the tone one uses to educate an audience of college students that are hyper active. Some students thought he tried to make us bored through his presentation to test our brains. They think way too much to get that from the presentation. But who knows maybe it could be true since it was hard to say awake.  

His slides were well done, with all the details he put into them. The he had good effects and images that showed us the audience what he was demonstrating. But they were too fast for anyone to read. Also he didn’t say take this part for notes or anything, I understand not all teachers tell you what to write but at least in some direction. Also one must have time for questions since I worked with power point; one has to have questions at the end of their presentations. Even though they can’t answer them, one has to at least somewhat interact with their audience. He can’t just talk expect that his audience will not want to give their opinion on the topic on hand. It takes a really professor to be able to answer questions students have.   

Even though he might have PH.D in his major, he hasn’t learned to fully give a power point to group of students. Maybe he can read this post of my blog to help understand that almost everyone was falling asleep in his lecture. I know it sounds harsh, but let’s be honest he needs help on his people skills. Also it seemed he wanted to talk about his book through the whole presentation. We understand you have book but we don’t all want to know about it. Finally I would tell him more about his presentation but it would just be to mean. That’s just not the type of guy I am.
