Is not about power points or projectors. Is about YOU and only YOU, if you do not believe me ask the people from UCE from the 70's,80's and part of the 90's that have been successful.
Also the teachers attitude and willingness to teach you has Lot to do. You can learn lot from a Doctor that is willing to teach the basics or to mentor you.


Some have been giving good opportunities and because of immaturity or personality problems or other psychological trauma they bloo their chances.
But if you are able to see your problems and fix them and try your best, you will get other chances.

AT THE END IS WHAT YOU DO.

Some day I will be the next Goljan/Daugherty/fysher for IMG's all over the world.

I totally agree with IMG Survivor. It's not all about the technological gadgetry, although, in my opinion power point presentations make it easier to assimilate some material. It's about the teacher and the student. A good teacher facilitates and enables the learning process, and a good student is pro-active and sincere in wanting to learn.

This brings me to my original point, I don't see how my stammering and perspirring in front of a classroom full of eager minds helps the learning process in any way. I believe the learning process should be interactive, with the teacher sharing his/her knowledge and eliciting meaningful questions and comments from students (in a perfect world).

However, in the end we are all responsible for what we learn and "get" from a class. For some, these exposiciones might not be a big deal (beneficial even), for others they can be like root canal. Either way, we (I) can try to learn something from every experience. Good luck to all my fellow reluctant public speakers.
