Trying to get this one in under the wire...
I love to teach. I think I've mentioned that before. It's not that I want to be a school teacher and do it on a daily basis, but I love working with medical students and residents sharing knowledge and experience. That converted over to giving lectures to the paramedics and firemen during my residency. Now I present a monthly lecture to our nurses and EMS providers.
I think it's not just about the teaching. I think it's the fun of playing with programs like Powerpoint and Keynote. Especially Keynote. Now, I consider myself a Powerpoint maven. I could do things with the program that made lectures pop. But, when I went to buy my Mac, the salesman gave me a brief demo of what could be done with Keynote. WOW! Not only did I fall in love with my MacBook and would marry it if I could, but Keynote would definitely be the illicit affair I would have.
After putting together a complex slide presentation for our residency graduation party, I now consider myself a Keynote savant. This post is late because I've had back to back lectures to prepare for, and I am currently working on a very professional lecture for the local medical society. But it will still have some pop... and some squirrels... I always have squirrels in my lectures...
