Norman Ellis provides a personal timeline of his experiences with educational technology from the 1960s to present day. He began school in the 1960s in Western Canada where technology was limited to party line phones and black and white TV with 2 channels. In high school and college in the 1980s, technology was still limited, using overhead projectors and mainframe computers. Ellis hopes to utilize virtual reality and voice-activated projection walls in the future to immerse students in learning and move away from textbooks.
