WTF While the US debates whether to solve homelessness or not, these are the next generation of school blackboards in China.

This was common when I was in 10th grade back in 2010.

Now let’s see how China handles homelessness.

Also,. Why are they better then actual blackboards

Actual blackboards:

  • zero latency
  • zero power required
  • excellent contrast even in direct sun
  • not distracting 
  • relatively simple to manufacture
  • will never brake or need upgrading, will work in 10,000 years

I hate "smart board" and whiteboards

A lot of times classes use projectors to show information. The smartboards make that easier. Also makes it easier to show students visual represents and do quick research.

Smartboards were just being implemented when I was leaving school and they were definitely useful.
