here you go fedi.

@TheMNWolf yes! They stated pulling that out in my 8th grade algebra class and I thought it was the coolest thing in the world. Always wondered how well it would display the games all the students had on their calculators

@kirakira You knew you were in for a shit lesson when you saw one of these bastards rolled out.

@kirakira The refresh-rate and the input-responsiveness on that thing are NUTS.

@dicenbuttons @jcm @kirakira

It's all computers... My kid is in elementary school and they've got a digital projector or a giant LCD touch screen on the wall in every room.

I think I've seen the overhead projectors mostly relegated to the corner of the room with a stack of unused binders on top.

(I graduated HS in 2006 and remember taking so many notes in HS and college from lectures given by someone hunched over one of these.)

I think you may be projecting, @kirakira.

[pauamma@mstdn.social]

@kirakira i used those. Once underlined something in red-tip on the displayed slide for effect, earning me stunned respect. Someone said "I didn't know that was possible."

[joshua@hooray.computer]

@kirakira hell yeah

[dicenbuttons@mastodon.social]

@IrrationalMethod @jcm @kirakira

I guess I'm old now. "Back in my day..."

Preface aside, it seems to me that a giant TV screen is a miserable way to teach kids. Sigh.

@kirakira <drops carefully order set of slides on the floor in shock>

[eclairwolf@tech.lgbt]

@kirakira oh!! thats my Friend from grade school!!

[krishean@tech.lgbt]

@kirakira definitely a technology of all time

@deersyrup @kirakira
You just need a laser printer (and a microfiche if you don't have much clear plastic)

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

@kirakira

Listen we don't LIKE technology around these part anymore, missy.

[mxchara@cyberpunk.lol]

@kirakira I miss these. expert mode: if there's a scroll of acetate sheet going across the platform so the lecturer can write out notes continuously, scrolling the plastic to get a clear writing area

[zackwhittaker@mastodon.social]

@kirakira this took me right back to my childhood school days back in england, thank you for sparking this memory.

[chu@climatejustice.social]

@kirakira

There's a sad short circuit look about that fellow.

[lightbocks@union.place]

@kirakira
I don't have a reason to draw on a map or an outline a lot BUT I could do some heckin lineart scaleups for large scale graphics, with the comfortable cumberance of analogue.

Wut? Cool wall-sized paintings et all.
It could be done a lot of ways but ALSO sometimes tool is stimmy.

[mab_813@fedi.at]

@kirakira

This reminds me of the big diapositive slides we had at the university, changing them in the dual slide projector was my first student job.

[lightbocks@union.place]

@mxchara @kirakira

Continuous. Scrolling. Lecture. Notes.

[mxchara@cyberpunk.lol]

@lightbocks @kirakira and then it was replaced by someone fumbling ineptly with a laptop, so they could show a PowerPoint slideshow that they were also distributing on a webpage so there wasn't any point in going to lecture at all. Technology has been so good for education! =D
