Comment on I Prefer My Professor’s Illegible Handwriting To Your PowerPoint Presentationparent

Could that be because the chalkboard notes were neater? Or the professor didn't have to worry about getting the technicalities just right?

I think it's because the professor was off to the side, drawing on a tablet, while we were staring at the screen it was projecting on. It also didn't help that we were in a computer lab, with huge 22 inch iMacs in front of us, making it hard to see the screen and basically impossible to concentrate. When a professor writes on chalkboard, your eyes tend to follow them around the room, rather than staring at what they wrote.
