That relatable (older) Gen Z memory: when all the projectors and white boards got replaced by Smart Boards™ around like fifth grade and none of the teachers knew how to use them but they Had To Use them otherwise the school just wasted a bunch of money and it was a rlly weird transition
an addition: when they calibrated the board by pressing the dots and everyone in class lost their minds
#looking back these were (and are) a huge scam#we aren't using smart boards as they were ''intended''#at least most teachers are not#plus they are actually not that sturdy and are broken most of the time#someone made a lot of money#acting like these were the new wave of education#bitch not really!#our kids are still writing on paper for a significant portion of their assignments#my smart board is a projection screen#idk how much those things cost but i bet the money could have been better spent elsewhere#ok that's my rant of the day
