Not surprising, really. PP slides ensure that the lecturer doesn't forget anything, but they suck all spontaneity or vitality out of a lecture just as surely as working from notes that the students can't see.
One can, of course, give an engaging, interactive lecture while using PP slides (or notes on cards), but all too often they seem to be expected to be make lectures engaging all on their own.
