thinking and planning for the future. Creating a 21st century education
system is about making sure that all students are prepared to succeed
in a competitive world-a world with plenty of opportunities for highly
skilled individuals and limited option for everyone else. It’s about
maximizing the impact of technology to develop proficiency in 21st

society we are a part of, the following can be considered when
deciding how education we look in our schools.

3. OPAQUE PROJECTOR
The opaque projector, epidiascope, epidiascope or episcope is a device which
displays opaque materials by shining a bright lamp onto the object from above. A
system of mirrors, prisms and/or imaging lenses is used to focus an image of the
material onto a viewing screen. Because they must project the reflected light,
opaque projectors require brighter bulbs and larger lenses than overhead
projectors. Care must be taken that the materials are not damaged by the heat
generated by the light source. Opaque projectors are not as common as the
overhead projector.
Opaque projectors are typically used to project images of book pages, drawings,
mineral specimens, leaves, etc. They have been produced and marketed as artists’
enlargement tools to allow images to be transferred to surfaces such as prepared
canvas, or for lectures and discourses.
