Event Date: Event Title: Event Description: 04/25/1950 First Computer used for instruction Computer-driven flight simulator trains MIT pilots 05/13/1959 First Computer used with school children IBM 650 computer teaches binary arithmetic in NYC 01/01/1968 Information-Processing Theory: Atkinson and Shiffrin The Mind as Computer sensory register: receive information short-term memory: hold information temporarily long-term memory: to store information indefinitely Learning is encoding information into human memory, similar to the way a computer stores information 01/01/1970 Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) Movement emerges Large-scale, federally funded university projects use main-frame/minicomputer systems with schools (Early 1970s) 01/01/1977 Mainframe and minicomputer applications dominate field Schools begin using computers for instruction and administration CDC President William Norris announces PLATO will revolutionize instruction (Mid-to-late 1970s) 01/01/1977 First microcomputers enter schools Using desktop systems, classroom teachers begin to take back control of instructional and administrative applications from district data-processing offices 01/01/1978 CAI movement declines; computer literacy movement begins Arthur Luehrmann coins term computer literacy for skills in programming and using software tools (e.g. word processing) Molnar warns that non-computer literate students will be educationally disadvantaged (Late 1970s) 01/01/1980 Microcomputer aplications spawn movements Field focueses on software publishing initiatives and teacher authroing software. The computer literacy computers-as-tools approach gives way to Logo's computer-based, problem-solving approach 01/01/1994 World Wide Web (WWW) is born First browser (Mosaic) transforms a formerly text-based internet into a combination of text and graphics. Teachers enter the "Information Superhighway" 01/01/1998 International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) creates standards ISTE sponsors creation of National Educational Technology Standards (NETS) to guide technology skills, first for students, then for teachers and administrators Timespan Dates: Timespan Title: Timespan Description: 03/20/1904
to 08/18/1990 Behaviorist Theory: B.F. Skinner Learning is an activity that occurs inside the mind and can be inferred only by observed behaviors (Theory underlying directed technology integration stratgeies) 08/21/1916

to 01/01/1960 Systems Theory and Systematic Instructional Design Managing the Complexity of Teaching Learning is fostered by using a system of instruction based on behaviorist information processing, and cognitive behaviorist theories. 01/01/1960
to 01/01/1970 University time-sharing systems Faculty/students in universities across the country use mainframe systems for programming and share utilities 01/01/1980
to 01/01/1990 Integrated learning systems (ILSs) emerge Schools being to see ILS networked systems as cost-effective solutions for instruction to address required standards; marks movement away from stand-alone systems and toward central server with connected computers 01/01/2000
to 09/12/2011 Internet use explodes Online and distance learning increases in higher eduactions, then in k-12 schools (continuous) 01/01/2007
to 01/01/2010 International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) issues new, updated standards for teachers, students and administrators
