Over at mathforum.org there is an excellent article (or would one say testimony) by J.J. Uhl from the University of Illinois how technology changed his lecture style for the better.

He reminds us of the learning sequence that makes things stick in our minds: " intuition-trial-error-speculation-conjecture-proof."
