| | Style 3a - Slides only style
Lecturers who will be presenting powerpoint slides with an external display can use the wacom tablet to add annotations during the presentation. This is suggestively useful as the interaction with the slides can make the session more interactive (especially for answering questions). The presenter is also able to maintain their private notes visible only to them on the tablet screen (presenters notes).
