  • During the late 70's and early 80's, I thought for sure computers would dramatically increase peoples IQ with the possiblities of what computer could do as teachers.. Boy, did I get it wrong.. Computers became fancy type writers and mindless gamming machines..

    I really did picture computers working closely with people, moving forward, backwards and braching out to teach at an unbelievalbe pace for each and every student...

  • @cyclenut Thanks for your comments on computer aided learning. Just this past month the Computer History Museum hosted a conference on the PLATO Learning System, an advanced computer-based teaching system developed in the 1970's. Check out the PLATO playlist on the ComputerHistory channel.

  • @Radnyxerr what?? Binary coding can start with either a 0 or a 1.... It just needs to be on or off.... electricity on the circuit or not. it can start with and end with either number. Google the alphabet in binary sometime. Then read what my post says.
