Summary of Technology from the 20th century to 21st Century
During this period there was a vast amount of creations and changes to technology. During this period saw the advancement of many valued products we use today from the transformation of black and white television to colour television. The invention of the vacuum cleaner in 1901 by mister Hubert Booth. The introduction of the air conditioner in 1902 by Willis Carver. Moreover one of the most important creation of this period even is the first gas motored and manned plane built by the wright brothers, without such a creation there would be no airline services in which we use so conveniently today and which we take for granted.

A brief history lesson: What caused the rapid innovation in technology from 20th century to the 21st?
What caused this rapid innovation in technology from 20th century to the 21st century? I thought I’d talk about this to make a sought of tribute to mankind’s innovative minds that has brought us to where we are today, we are living in a world full of innovative inventions though what sparked this is what is truly interesting.
The main reasons to the causes of these innovations being so rapid is due to:
1. The innovations where largely on a universal scale affecting almost everybody in the world, for example the invention of the telephone by Alexander graham bell in 1854 was only universally scaled in the 20th century. The effect was on a large scale allowing people from any economic status to have the ability to purchase these in their own home.
2. The technologies were diverse and were impacted by the innovation in the sciences such as Neuro science and the advancement in Medicine and quantum mathematics which allowed for a spark in a rapid innovative revolution.
3. The last main reason is due to the development of technologies such as telephones, computers power plants motor vehicles generators etc, these had an immense effect on the development of new and innovative products, whilst allowing for a great deal of amount of capital investment of companies into the development of these many future innovations creating a high amount of quantity and quality of these technologies such as allowing everybody in the world to have a taste of the future.

Technological changes and problems that arise in education
3/12/2013
There are existing problems adherent as technology progresses. These problems are perhaps invisible to the individuals of countries of high gross domestic product such as Australia. Particularly this problem mainly exists for third world countries like Libia. The problem is the great ‘digital divide’ As technology develops it would be obvious that it would cost more to produce, countries such as Libia cannot afford the resources to obtain the latest technology. Hence this is the problem of the digital divide. Is it possible for an average person living on a dollar a day In Libia to buy the latest iPhone or apple product? It is impossible. Hence they are using out-dated technology. They miss out on important opportunities involved because they miss out. These opportunities may include more access to wealthy, multimedia content, the rising use of online tutor to available at home, not only class room, the extensive accessibility of mobile computing devices which could use the Internet, moreover, people can connect and watch professional by using social networking tools for learning and professional development, and digital games.
