Term explanation
An e-lecture is a recorded or live-streamed lecture delivered digitally, typically as video content that learners can watch on any device. E-lectures replicate the structure of traditional academic lectures but remove geographic and scheduling constraints. They are common in university distance learning programs, corporate training platforms, and MOOCs. E-lectures are often paired with supplementary materials, quizzes, or discussion forums to maintain engagement and assess comprehension.
SlideLizard LIVE makes e-lectures interactive: embed live polls and Q&A directly in PowerPoint so students engage in real time, signal when they're lost, and stay active throughout the session — not just watch passively.

It typically frames the customer's pain point first, then presents the proposed solution and its benefits, supported by evidence or case studies. Solution presentations are central to B2B sales processes and consulting engagements, where building relevance and credibility is critical to winning the deal.
Learn moreOpen questions invite a full, unrestricted response rather than a simple yes or no. They typically begin with words like 'how', 'what', 'why', or 'tell me about'. In presentations, coaching, interviews, and research, open questions encourage deeper thinking, surface underlying perspectives, and generate richer dialogue. They are essential for understanding audience needs, facilitating discussions, and building engagement during interactive sessions.
Learn moreAn .odp file is a presentation created with LibreOffice Impress or other OpenDocument-compatible applications. Like .ppt files, it contains slides with text, images, effects, and media. The .odp format is part of the open OpenDocument standard, making it vendor-neutral and compatible across platforms. Most modern presentation tools, including Microsoft PowerPoint, can open and convert .odp files.
Learn moreA living presentation is a slide deck that continuously updates to reflect the latest data, content, and context — rather than being a static snapshot. Like a living document, it is connected to data sources that feed new information into the slides automatically. Living presentations are a practical implementation of the Agentic Slides concept and are the natural output of data-driven presentation workflows. They are particularly valuable for recurring formats such as management reports and investor updates.
