Handouts and pdf files are poor ways to learn. Copying the blackboard onto paper with a pen as the prof scribbles on it is a much better way.

Technology has not improved on the blackboard at all.

The best presentation I've ever done was when the scheduled presenter never showed up. I volunteered. Having no slides, no preparation, I was faced with a white board and a dry-erase pen. Somehow, magic ensued.

I've never felt that way with prepared slides and a video screen.
