I used Powerpoint extensively last semester when teaching English. I found it really helpful in organising my thoughts and structuring the lesson. I used it to articulate lesson objectives and tasks for the lesson, and demonstrate essay planning models and tables organising quotes from the novel under study. Arguably it was more helpful for me than for the students!
