So I was at Caltech yesterday to listen to a Scottish folk band. It was in a lecture hall--Brickman Auditorium (not such a good venue though the music was great), and I was struck by this: chalk and a chalkboard, obviously well and currently used. Keeps things in perspective, sometimes low tech is ok; and a reminder to use technology when it's useful and helpful to the students. Will this help me edit my big ideas and overambition and overload?
Surely a matter of personal preference, but there is NO WAY ON EARTH I WILL EVER USE A CHALKBOARD AGAIN! The squeakiness...AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! (Sorry for the outburst.)
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny, I'd much rather have a chalkboard than whiteboard! Don't like the squeakiness, but the clicking takes me back....
