"In order to convey knowledge effectively, good interaction with the recipient is essential. The blackboard is the ideal tool for this. Explaining something on the blackboard calls for subject knowledge and coherence. This makes it an easy and effective way of responding to audience questions. Writing on the blackboard also slows down the speed of presentation, ensuring that the thought processes of transmitter and recipient are synchronised. Finally, the blackboard's simplicity is its strength: virtually nothing can go wrong. This ensures that all attention is focused on the actual knowledge transfer. Although technological tools are ideal for illustrating certain things, a good lecturer and the blackboard are still indispensable for real knowledge transfer."
