So I have a presentation to do Friday that I had planned to work on today - but because I am home with a sick child, I am now stuck because I have worked on everything I can without the resources in my office. Real world calling...
Presentations in academia are interesting - it's the only time when people will want to sit through boring powerpoint slides of numbers and statistics trying to make deep meaning of them. If you were to do these kinds of presentations in industry or for policy makers or to get a point across to the general public - all the experts on presentations would tell you - DON'T DO IT!! But academia loves it - I suspect academics are really just masochistic.
