They may think the instructor used something ready-made, similar to commercially available lessons on slides at the grade or high school level (which they may have seen in use). I know someone who took great pains to prepare slides from scratch for a post-calculus course, only to get teaching evaluations like "He teaches from Power Point, give me a break". This is to emphasize the point you are making, not to discourage the OP from using slides. | |
