This document provides an overview of the history of instructional technology used in K-12 classrooms from slates and chalkboards in the 1800s to modern technologies like smartphones, tablets, videos and learning management systems. It discusses the increasing role of technology in education and frameworks like the ISTE standards that emphasize skills like creativity, collaboration and problem solving over memorization. Major developments covered include radio and television education programs in the early 1900s, language labs in the 1950s, the introduction of computers and the internet in schools in the 1980s and 90s, and the growing use of mobile devices, cloud computing and social media today.

8.  During the Visual Instruction
Movement, film, slides and
photographs were used in schools to
educate students.
 The motion picture projector
became one of the first technological
devices used in schools.
 Thomas Edison predicted in 1913 that
books would become obsolete and
the motion picture would become
the primary medium of teaching. Of
course, that prediction was incorrect.
Today it is essential to the Flipped
Classroom.

9. New York City’s Board of
Education was actually
the first organization to
send lessons to schools
through a radio station.
Over the next couple of
decades, “schools of the
air” began broadcasting
programs to millions of
American students.

10. Based on the theory of “repetitive drill”
schools began to install listening stations
that used headphones and audio tapes.
Most were used in what were dubbed
‘language labs’ and this practice is still in
use today, except now computers are used
instead of audio tapes.
