EDUC 7100 2012
1900 to the Future
In his 1980 book The Third Wave, Alvin Toffler presented his theory that our development as a society has evolved through three waves.
•The Agricultural Wave•The Industrial Wave•The Information Wave
He also proposed a fourth wave, Communication
This presentation will illustrate each of those waves in terms of the following strands:
•Technology•Work•Education•Society and Culture•Journalism
For this project I will be focusing on the four waves from the year 1900 forward.
•Agricultural Wave 8000 BC-1750
•Industrial Age 1750-1950
•Information Age 1950-2000
•Communication Age 2000-?
