M: Good morning, I'd like some information about the college. My name is Michael Vaughn. I have a friend in Italy who's interested in applying for a place at one of the colleges. There are one or two questions she'd like me to ask you.

W: Go ahead.

M: Thanks. The first one is. What language is uses for normal lessons?

W: The main language of instruction in all the colleges is English. But some subjects are taught in French and some in Italian.

M: Right. Her next question is about fees, Is it expensive to go to one of the colleges?

W: Students' parents do not have to be rich, if that is what you mean. There are scholarships for all colleges, but we do ask parents to help by paying what they can afford.

M: Good, she' 11 be glad to hear that. Now she wants to know something about getting into a college. Does she have to get high marks in her exams?

W: Oh, yes, well, she will have to do well, but academic ability is not the only thing that's important. We also look at personal qualities.

M: What sort of things do you mean?

W: Maturity, the ability to get on well with people from different countries, that sort of thing.

M: Of course. I understand what you mean Her last question is about her other interests. Can she do painting and modern dancing, for example?

Powerpoint, the public-speaking application included in the Microsoft Office software package, is one of the most pervasive and ubiquitous technological tools ever concocted. In less than a decade, it has revolutionized the worlds of business, education, science and communications, swiftly becoming the standard for just about anybody who wants to explain just about anything to just about anybody else.

From corporate middle managers reporting on production goals to 4thgraders fashioning a show-and-tell on the French and Indian War to church pastors explicating the seven deadly sins—although seven is a trifle too many bullet points for an audience to absorb comfortably, as any' veteran PowerPoint user will tell you—the software seems to be everywhere.

With PowerPoint, you could fit your entire presentation onto a computer disk and use a laptop to project it, in sequential order, onto a screen that the audience could watch. All your information and visuals could be arranged on discrete "pages" or "slides" full of headings and bulleted points.

Its astonishing popularity, the way it has spread exponentially through the culture, seems analogous, in a way, to drugs. Think of it as technological cocaine—so effortless to embrace initially, so difficult to relinquish after that. People who once use PowerPoint generally don't stop using it.

PowerPoint may be an easier way to present information, but is it a better way?

PowerPoint squeezes ideas into a preconceived format, organizing and condensing not only your material but—inevitably, it seems--your way of thinking about and looking 'at that material. It is changing not only the way we do 'business and educate our young, but also the way we think.

"I hate PowerPoint," says Jay Phelan, a biologist at the University of California. Most of Phelan's .colleagues use PowerPoint in their lectures and his students often request such presentations from him. But he resists distilling the contents of his lectures—the creative interplay of a teacher's knowledge and the students'hunger for ideas, 'as manifested in rhetorical display—into a series of bullet items.

The point of PowerPoint is what makes it dangerous to our imaginations. With all the ready templates and AutoContent Wizard, Microsoft makes PowerPoint much easier to use. From a hefty list of potential speech topics, you click on the one you want, say, "Project Overview", "Selling Your ideas", etc. , and the software burps out some 10 to 12 ,slides with prompts and even some virtual text.

More than 80 percent of the presentations given by business school students rely on PowerPoint rather than the old-fashioned flowing narrative. "But what's fine for a business professional might not be so fine for a child," says Sherry Turkle, a professor at MIT, "They change how our kids grow up and how they process information. PowerPoint doesn't teach children to make an argument. It encourages presentation, not conversation. Students grow accustomed to not being challenged. A strong presentation is designed to close down debate, rather than open it up."

What sort of world is reflected in PowerPoint? A world stripped down to briefly summarized essences, a world snipped clean of the annoying underbrush of ambiguity and complication.
