better presentations

A helpful book for creating classroom presentations is Cliff Atkinson's Beyond Bullet Points, Using Microsoft PowerPoint to Create Presentations That Inform, Motivate and Inspire (Microsoft 2005).  Although the book focuses on business and marketing examples, academics can extract general principles to use in creating presentations and to make better use of visual and oral/aural communication than just reading a list of bullet points.
