[Replicable Practices] SlidesMania - An excessive enthusiasm over Google Slides and Microsoft PowerPoint

A presentation tool of any type - low or high tech have has existed in teacher toolboxes for a long time. Microsoft PowerPoint has existed since May 22, 1990 (32 years ago) and Google Slides initial release date was March 9, 2006 (17 years ago). Nothing new!

I remember the countless hours spent (on either presentation software) making presentations look just right. 

• Trying to find the perfect ratio of text to pictures.

• Trying to find the right variety of layouts so my presentation was interesting and engaging.

• Trying to not overwhelm the students with not a lot of one thing.

Only to repeat all of the above time wasters again to "improve" the presentation because I learned to use a new tool or discovered a new layout or new colour combinations. I didn't even mention the number of experiements that tool place with transitions and animations.

I stumbled upon, what I consider to be a Replicable Practices website that can help eliminate some of the time wasters above.
