What is chalkboard?
A chalkboard or blackboard is a reusable writing surface on which text or drawings are made with sticks of calcium sulfate or calcium carbonate, known (when used for this purpose) as chalk.
Chalkboards were originally made of smooth, thin sheets of black or dark grey slate stone.
Modern versions are often green because the color is considered easier on the eyes
Advantages
Teachers can have students write on the chalkboard to display their understanding of course material.
It assists classroom management because it requires light.
Aids discussions with other students and tutors via discussion boards and forums
Availability
Most areas assigned for instruction are equipped with chalkboards. Also, if more
board space is needed, portable boards of various types and styles are handy.
The chalkboard is inexpensive especially when the usable life of
the board is considered.
Flexible in use in the sense that instructors may use it, learners may use it and changes can be easily made through erasure.
Colored chalk can be used to develop the topic.
DisadvantagesThe chalkboard carries with it a "temporariness." Material put on the board cannot be saved or made permanent.
Chalkboards are often fixed in such a way that they are not always at a comfortable height for all potential users.
Being fixed, chalkboards can put restrictions on the use of classroom space and classroom activities as learners need to be placed where they can see the board.
Problems can arise for learners who have vision impairments.
