Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for selecting presentation content. Presentation content is displayed to an audience, the presentation content includes a plurality of content elements. One or more feedback inputs are received from the audience, each feedback input is associated with one of the content elements. A computer determines an alternative presentation content based on the received feedback inputs, and the alternative presentation content is displayed.
Claims12
A computer-implemented method for selecting presentation slides, the method comprising:
- displaying, by a computer, a slide presentation to an audience, wherein the slide presentation comprises displaying, one after another, a subset of presentation slides selected from a predefined set of presentation slides, each presentation slide including a plurality of content elements and a pair of selectable control elements associated with each content element, one of the pair of selectable control elements selectable to transmit feedback to the computer indicating a request for the display of more presentation content related to the associated content element, and the other of the pair of selectable control elements selectable to transmit feedback to the computer indicating a request for the display of less presentation content related to the associated content element;
- receiving, by the computer, one or more feedback inputs from the audience during the slide presentation, wherein each feedback input is associated with the selection of one or the other of the pair of selectable control elements associated with a content element;
- in response to determining, by the computer, based on the one or more received feedback inputs, to display more presentation content related to the associated content element, modifying, by the computer, a portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed to include one or more additional slides from the predefined set of presentation slides that display presentation content related to the associated content element;
- in response to determining, by the computer, based on the one or more received feedback inputs, to display less presentation content related to the associated content element, modifying, by the computer, a portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed to remove one or more slides from the subset of presentation slides that display presentation content related to the associated content element;
- and
- displaying, by the computer, the modified portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed.
3 more elements
A computer program product for selecting presentation slides, the computer program product comprising:
- one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to display a slide presentation to an audience, wherein the slide presentation comprises displaying, one after another, a subset of presentation slides selected from a predefined set of presentation slides, each presentation slide including a plurality of content elements and a pair of selectable control elements associated with each content element, one of the pair of selectable control elements selectable to indicate a request for the display of more presentation content related to the associated content element, and the other of the pair of selectable control elements selectable to indicate a request for the display of less presentation content related to the associated content element;
- program instructions to receive one or more feedback inputs from the audience during the slide presentation, wherein each feedback input is associated with the selection of one or the other of the pair of selectable control elements associated with a content element;
- program instructions, in response to determining, based on the one or more received feedback inputs, to display more presentation content related to the associated content element, to modify a portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed to include one or more additional slides from the predefined set of presentation slides that display presentation content related to the associated content element;
- program instructions, in response to determining, based on the one or more received feedback inputs, to display less presentation content related to the associated content element, to modify a portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed to remove one or more slides from the subset of presentation slides that display presentation content related to the associated content element;
- and
- program instructions to display the modified portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed.
4 more elements
A computer system for selecting presentation content, the computer system comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- one or more computer-readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on one or more of the computer-readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to display a slide presentation to an audience, wherein the slide presentation comprises displaying, one after another, a subset of presentation slides selected from a predefined set of presentation slides, each presentation slide including a plurality of content elements and a pair of selectable control elements associated with each content element, one of the pair of selectable control elements selectable to indicate a request for the display of more presentation content related to the associated content element, and the other of the pair of selectable control elements selectable to indicate a request for the display of less presentation content related to the associated content element;
- program instructions to receive one or more feedback inputs from the audience during the slide presentation, wherein each feedback input is associated with the selection of one or the other of the pair of selectable control elements associated with a content element;
- program instructions, in response to determining, based on the one or more received feedback inputs, to display more presentation content related to the associated content element, to modify a portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed to include one or more additional slides from the predefined set of presentation slides that display presentation content related to the associated content element;
- program instructions, in response to determining, based on the one or more received feedback inputs, to display less presentation content related to the associated content element, to modify a portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed to remove one or more slides from the subset of presentation slides that display presentation content related to the associated content element;
- and
- program instructions to display the modified portion of the subset of presentation slides not yet displayed.
