It provides a certain pace, and opportunity for me and the students to think about the material that is just lacking when presenting prepared slides.
Typing it into the computer in real time and projecting it might be possible with a good graphics program, but seems cumbersome and less flexible.
My aerodynamics professor used the only lecture room left at the Naval Academy with a sliding black chalkboard. One where there were multiple boards on sliders stacked on top of each other.
I remember the lecture where he derived the Navier-Stokes equations from ΣF=Σma on four boards, with zero notes. Did it from memory.
Our test was to reproduce that.
Dr. Karpouzian. I remember that Armenian man like he is sitting next to me. Gave me nightmares. Reading his ratemyprofessor is pure nostalgic comedy, though.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
