see older commentsYou can start teaching with this tool in minutes. It's fast and you can incrementally supplement lectures. It's also super versatile.
Expensive! Difficult to change slides on the fly.

Lots of features, very robust, durable system. Presentation agnostic. Keep using your presentations and activities!
