What method did your teachers use to present information when you were in school?

Was it a chalk board, white board, smart board, other?

Mostly chalkboards. Sometimes half the school was moved to the "theater" area in the basement and we were shown informational 16mm movies. I'm pretty sure several of them were part of "The Bell Labs Science Series" or something like that.

@ElwoodBlues I'd forgotten about those films! We just had them in the classroom/lab. That was very exciting...even when the film unthreaded and the teacher became flustered and was clearly holding back the swearing. 😂

@ElwoodBlues I remember Films called ‘How to make Science dreary’. At my posh grammar school you never learnt Biology. You did Latin and Classical Studies instead.

@peterlee I'm pretty sure "Our Mr. Sun" was one of them. I loved them! I didn't encounter Latin until I signed up for it in 9th grade. Big mistake!!
