Personally, at this point I won't even use slides for one-off speeches/presentations unless it's truly demanded. I find them so limiting and damaging to natural flow/authenticity.
Shout out to all the teachers & profs who ARE immensely dedicated to the core role of teaching. You make a difference.
One of them, if you walked past his office an hour before class, you could hear rehearsing his lecture (that he always gave w/o notes). He was dedicated to his craft, and it paid dividends for students.
(I took 5 of his courses; not sure I've ever learned as much from one person not my parent)
I had profs that didn't use slides and kept me fully engaged and even enraptured every class session. That was sadly not the norm, however.
I can't speak to what this particular prof does, but when a professor basically just reads their PowerPoint slides, it's less likely to be "phone addiction" or whatever, and more likely sheer boredom or "why am I even here."
