This ISUComm workshop will explore the role of electronic slide presentations in both foundational and advanced communication courses. We'll start by focusing on the PowerPoint debate engaged by Edward Tufte and others.

For all our attention to résumés and cover letters, we realize that they serve one major purpose: Getting an interview. The interview is the most important part of the job hunt, because it is your opportunity to find out whether the job and organization is right for you, and serves as an opportunity for potential employers to assess if you are right for them.
