Not only do chalkboard modulate the speed of lecture, its other benefit is simply the size. It's why mathematical institutes have 6 panel sliding chalkboards. Think of a slide presentation, but shows the last 6 slides side by side. This is particularly useful for complicated math, where you need to constantly cross reference previous part of the proof. P.S. if not obvious already, I am a mathematician. I didn't hoard chalks though.

There are often reflections on Education and the impact of AI, new technologies and so on. I really appreciated this issue (as always) because there is an important focus on the cultural dimension. Furthermore, country-to-country differences can also be an important topic in the adaptation and influence of tools such as chalkboards (and AI itself) in the classroom. Thanks for sharing.
