Brown Bag Lunch: Pecha Kucha: or, One Way to Prevent Death by PowerPoint
Dr. Shannon Murray
Pecha Kucha: or, One Way to Prevent Death by PowerPoint
In 2003, two Tokyo-based architects, Mark Dytham and Astrid Klein, invented a way to have architects show their stuff in an efficient way: Pecha-Kucha, Japanese for "chit chat", uses 20 slides set to change after 20 seconds each. Businesses have adopted the method to improve the quality (and reduce the length!) of their presentations. So is there a place for Pecha-Kucha in the university classroom? Come for a demonstration and then some real "chit chat" afterwards.
Time: 12-1:00 pm
Location: Webster Centre Boardroom, RL 234F
