The Internet and Beyond


We will look into our crystal ball and share some thoughts on how the Internet will change the lives of teachers in the next five to ten years, what this might look like, and what role the Math Forum will play in this transformation. We will also tell some stories about the history of hypertext, from Vannevar Bush's vision in 1945, to Ted Nelson (Swarthmore '59) actually coining the phrase in the 1970's, to its present form. And all this in under 15 minutes! Amazing!
