“Consider a future device for individual use, which is a sort ofmechanized private file and library. It needs a name, and to coinone at random, ``memex'' will do. A memex is a device in which anindividual stores all his books, records, and communications, andwhich is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory.

As We May Think, The Atlantic Monthly, 1945

It consists of a desk, and while it can presumably be operated from a distance, it is primarily the piece of furniture at which he works. On the top are slanting translucent screens, on which material can be projected for convenient reading. There is a keyboard, and sets of buttons and levers. Otherwise it looks like an ordinary desk.”

The Atlantic Monthly, 1997

“There is no good evidence that most uses of computers significantly improve teaching and learning, yet school districts are cutting programs --- music, art, physical education --- that enrich children’s lives to make room for this dubious nostrum…”

Thomas Edison, 1922

“… the motion picture is destined to revolutionize our education system and … in a few years it will supplant largely, if not entirely, the use of textbooks.”

Teaching MachineTeaching Machine

Sydney Pressey, 1926

“… teaching machines are unique among instructional aids, in that the student not merely passively listen, watches, or reads but actively responds. And as he does so he finds out whether his response is correct or not. And a record may be kept which aids in improving the materials.”

Television as Teaching MachineTelevision as Teaching Machine

Edward R. Murrow, 1958

“This instrument can teach, it can illuminate; yes, it can even inspire. But it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends. Otherwise, it is merely lights and wires in a box..”

B. F. Skinner, 1961

“A frame of textual material appearing in the square opening is incomplete: in place of certain letters or figures there are holes. Letters or figures can be made to appear in these holes by moving slides... When the material has been completed, the student checks his response… if they are correct, moves a new frame of material into place…“

“… with the help of teaching machines and programmed instruction, students could learn twice as much in the same time and with same effort as in a standard classroom.“

Seymour PapertSeymour Papert

The Gears of My Childhood, 1980

“What an individual can lean, and how he learns it, depends on what models he has available…

… The computer is the Proteus of machines. Its essence is its universality, its power to stimulate. Because it can take on a thousand forms and can serve a thousand functions, it can appeal to a thousand tastes.”

School’s OutSchool’s Out

Lewis Perelman, 1992

“Because the pervasive and potent impact of HL (hyper-learning) technology, we now are experiencing the turbulent advent of an economic and social transformation more profound than the industrial revolution… In the wake of the HL revolution, the technology called ‘school’ and the social institution commonly thought of as ‘education’ will be as obsolete and ultimately extinct as the dinosaurs.”

“The best current evidence is that media are mere vehicles that deliver instruction but do not influence student achievement any more than the truck that delivers our groceries causes changes in our nutrition.”

Media Will Never Influence Learning, 1983; 1994

“… the choice of vehicle might influence the cost or extent of distributing instruction.”

“… it was not the medium which influenced learning but instead certain attributes of media that can be modeled by learners and can shape the development of unique ‘cognitive process’.”

“… the improvement in city condition by general adoption of the motor car can hardly overestimated. Street clean, dustless, and odorless, with light rubber-tired vehicles moving swiftly and noiselessly over smooth expanse, would eliminate a great part of the nervousness, distraction, and strain of modern metropolitan life.”
