British Literature...Technology?

We do so much with notes on the projector in this class...I can't help but wonder what class would be like if there were only lecture. So much history, so many exerpts from ancient works, so many notes. I don't think that a SMART BOARD would be especially helpful in this class - the same goes for the clicker system. There are just so many students and the format of the class would not lend itself to such an education system. The magnifying projector that teachers can set on their desks and use to magnify books, papers, etc. onto a screen would be a helpful tool for the professor, however. So mch of what we learn is taken from other works that are not in our books, or from on-line research she has done. This stands in stark contrast to another class that I have: Special Needs in Education, which would benefits greatly from use of videos, powerpoints, and clas discussion.
