Educational Technology Timeline
If you haven’t checked out ISTE’s TimeGlider of key educational technology developments in the past 30 years then now is your chance. The timeline overlays technological advancements throughout history with information about every NECC starting with the first NECC in 1979. It’s truly amazing to see how far we’ve come and how technology and education have been married together to create the greater Ed Tech Universe.
From ISTE.org:
This year marks the 30th anniversary for the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) and ISTE’s conference, the National Educational Computing Conference (NECC).
We invite you to join us in this celebration year by honoring the past, celebrating the present, and envisioning the future. Enjoy browsing the timeline and learning about Ed Tech history
Click the start button to begin using the timeline. You can use the left and right arrows to scroll through the years of the timeline. You can also “grab” the timeline and drag it left and right to move to different years. The up and down arrows will zoom in and out so you can view years at a time or just hours. When you find a piece of history you would like more information about click it to see more details.
TimeGlider is a free application that can be used by educators and students to create timelines about the last year of your family, the last century of world events, about pre-historical (bce/bc) times or on any other subject you want to present.
