what is the John Madden technique for powerpoint?

Answer 1

The John Madden PowerPoint "technique" is using a pointer or pen (e.g., the built-in one) to show, circle, or draw attention to something on the slide.

The origin: "John Madden, a famous football announcer on television, is known for using a pen on the screen to show how a football play occurred."

Answer 2

I agree with mnk43:.... Draw lots of circles and what not over your presentation

Also make plenty of Bret Farve references.... :-)
