Those are still used in schools. I know 6 year olds who can tell you what this is.

Much more reliable than powerpoint

If you got to move the next one OHP paper on and off at school it was a pretty cool job!

I remember showing presentation on this projector in my college days using a transparent plastic sheet and fighting to have that member in our group who had the best handwriting.

umm I was born in 2003 and we used these like everyday in science class

I'm 10 years old and now I feel 100 years old I in 1 and 2

One cought fire in class once 😂

I had those in my elementary school classes (kindergarten- grade 6) born in 2003

I just bought a used one of those as an aid to teach art on Zoom.. D:

I was born in 2002 but we had these in my elementary school. We mostly used smart boards tho

Always wanted to use the color highlighters on the overhead!

These bored me to death when teacher brought it out for viewing.

Bwahahaha i use this in my college for presentation, projector were so rare

Loved to use for school projects

I believe I have used those in school recently.

I actually just tossed a stack of printable foils for these f*ckers, two days ago, during a major clean out :-D (Still less annoying and fast than power point)

Oh no....things have changed sooo much in the last 20 years ...

We stille used those at college in 2012....

Had them in 1 and 2

It doesn't help that most these comments are from kids they are referencing on the post haha

I was the one sitting by the projector and working ahead because I could read through the cover sheet. lol

My 8th grade class used this... In 2018....

Hahahaha!

I used this for teaching and found them amazing technology at the time... ;-)

i actually used these in 7th grade. im a sophmore

I graduated high school in 2004, teachers still used overheard projectors then

I had these (born 2005)

I used these in kindergarden and I was born in the 2000's

Such weird contraptions even when era appropriate

Yea... what is it ?

That's and Elmo (at least that's what all of my teachers said that's what it's called)

I'm a Gen Z'er and we used those in elementary school, try again lol

My physics teacher used one of these last year.

i had this in my second grade class (born 2006)

I had to source on of them at work for a speaker we had coming in to speak to our pupils. When I found it it still had his last acetate from his last talk 5 years earlier 😂😂

I'm still using these at school....dreaming of whiteboards and stuff

Oh this had me laughing out loud!

state of the art in the 90s (born 1969)

When I was at school in 1990's it was a common prank to put small pieces of an eraser inside the overhead projector from the fan holes. So when the teacher turned the power on soon the whole classroom smelled like burning rubber. I am happy that no one did that prank when I was at school.

Projector? We used to have these in my Elementary school but now middle school is all about apple tvs in every room :/ I wonder what next year will be like in highschool xD

wHaT iS iT?!
