Electronic touchscreen blackboard - GIF

Good discussion. The video does show cool technology, but the next generation of students are loosing the core lessons that have allowed things like that to be developed. We must use things like that correctly, to reinforce and to help with learning those core lessons, NOT to replace them.

I have quoted several posts here instead of posting 3 different times, hope it makes sense.

Глядя на ролик, вспоминаю свою первую учительницу. У неё был очень красивый почерк.

translation - Looking at the video, I remember my first teacher. She had a very beautiful handwriting.

Exactly, now they do not even teach kids how to hold a pencil in school, let along how to actually USE it.

TO MANY of today's educators are bring crippled in the classroom by administrators and so called "curriculum specialists" who are learning some VERY STRANGE ways of "teaching" in college. I retired 11 years ago, after teaching for 35, I am so concerned about the damage we are doing to the youth of our country and the world.

You cannot even use chalk in many classrooms anymore, too many kids are allergic to chalk dust.
