Interactive programs are more likely to engage students than a traditional powerpoint. While a traditional powerpoint can teach a lesson, a nonlinear one gives students the opportunity to immediately use the information they've learned in the presentation, especially if the content is factually based. Students can take quizzes in a nonlinear powerpoint, answer questions and/or do their own research on the internet through a nonlinear powerpoint, giving them the repetition needed to remember facts, dates, vocabulary and more.
Traditional powerpoints still have a role as a presentation tool, because the interactivity can be provided by the presenter, but nonlinear powerpoints provide versatility for teacher and student use.
