Rage against the machine

We've been touring schools lately (our daughter will start in August 2007 and registration starts this October) and, on average, it appears children are now expected to produce PowerPoint presentations in, about, the fourth grade. Can we opt out of that?

Why would you want to? As an educator, I've been fighting for years to allow more artistic and visual ways for students to express their knowledge. Technology in school gives us an opportunity to do this.
