“This technology will enable us to so modify the learning environment outside the classroom that much if not all the knowledge schools presently try to teach with such pain and expense and such limited success will be learned, as the child learns to talk, painlessly, successfully, and without organized instruction.” Computers 1980 Seymour Papert

“[These instruments are] but little resorted to by the teacher, who knows almost as little how to use it as his pupils. It’s in vain that our more intelligent [school] committees urge the importance of its use, from year to year.” The Chalkboard 1840

“We are convinced that the American people want [this technology] and that they need [it]. [This device] will not be simply a luxury entertainment service. Its educational potential is unlimited. It will be the most powerful communication tool of them all.” Television 1947

“…the existing system is utterly inefficient. The teacher may pour it in the ear or exhibit it in caricature in the miserable embellishments of the school book, but unless he teaches through the eye…no satisfactory instruction can be conveyed.” Stereoscope 1856 Sir David Brewster
