Powerpoint Presentation
This presentation complements the film and is designed:
- To provide more detailed information about issues raised in the film
- To stimulate discussion in lectures, seminars and workshops
- For private study by students working alone
The PowerPoint presentation covers pig welfare issues in detail. It can be used both for lecturing and for personal use. It is designed for use in lectures to accompany the film. It reinforces key points and includes questions to encourage thought and discussion of the issues. However, it can also work as a stand-alone resource.
The presentation is divided into 10 sections, containing approximately 150 slides including many pictures and about 20 short video clips. This could be enough for several lectures, though an alternative is to show some of the sections and leave the rest for private study.
Video clips will be added to the on-line version of the PowerPoint presentation soon. A fully functional version, also including animation, is available on the DVD-ROM which can be ordered here.
