cognitive style of powerpoint

I agree with what the author is saying is saying because I feel that powerpoints are too uninteractive and are sometimes hard to pay attention and retain information from. The author states "It is helpful to provide audience members with at least one mode of information that allows them to control the order and pace of learning unlike slides and unlike talk. The author suggests paper handouts, and I think that powerpoints would be best supplemented with a handout of each slide in case the viewer is unable to keep up with the presentation or if the viewer wanted to return to an earlier slide.
