They showed us these things on old reel to reel projectors that barely worked. And the films themselves were 20 years out of date back then. We were watching them in the 70's with a bunch of child actors on screen that looked like they fell straight out of Leave it to Beaver. Films shot in color were a rare treat.

The flapping of the the reel once it was complete and unthreaded itself would wake everyone up.

The lazier teachers would do this every friday for all of their classes, kind of a free day off from actually teaching for them. Gotta love government provided education.

What did they call those classes where they crammed 200 students into and you had to self serve your education?

You know it was in a 3 ring binder. You read the shit, did the exercises and tested out. All the teachers had to do was feed the answer sheets into the reader to grade them?

This is back when the school ran out of room so brought in trailers to house the extra asses.
