Fact: Powerpoint slides are not enough to retain information. It's like showing the representation of a building as a pencil drawing on a napkin. It's not enough to fully understand the concept. In order to do so, one must fully embrace the concept as one has with other familiar subjects in his life, e.g.: a real building, a computer (for some), a book, the English language (for some). We already fully understand these concepts, because we learned them throughout our lives. It is not enough to flash a concept by your face to remember it, unless you're a genius with photographic memory (but that type of people is extremely rare).

that's why powerpoints are accompanied with a presentation in which you can take notes of what is said. It is usual to send the slides after the presentation, because they can fresh up your memory.

I personally don't write quickly enough to process all the bla bla from the keynote speaker. :P
