Presentations

Group slide decks, with contribution measured across the kinds of work a deck actually involves.

1 min read

Dwixel includes a collaborative presentation editor, so a group can build a deck together in the same place they write. Crucially, contribution is measured for the deck as well as the document, because slide work is real work and is usually invisible in the final file.

A deck is not one kind of work

A single contribution number for a presentation would hide more than it shows. One person may write the substance, another may structure the flow, a third may design and polish, a fourth may pull it together. Dwixel separates deck contribution into distinct lanes so each kind of effort is visible on its own terms:

  • ·Content: the actual words and substance on the slides.
  • ·Structure: building, ordering, and shaping the deck.
  • ·Visual design: layout, styling, and the look of the slides.
  • ·Curation: refining and improving what is already there.
  • ·Delivery: the speaking and presenting role.

The same honesty rules apply

Contribution is attributed per element to the person who made it, and large generalised pastes (a dropped-in template or block of AI output) are de-credited rather than rewarded, on the same principle that surviving, authored work is what counts. 1 Instructors and owners get a breakdown of the lanes and the element-level picture; the design choices stay explainable.
