One of the biggest inovations in early technology for educations comes in the form of the videotape. Debuting in the 1950's the videotape challenged the traditional idea of needing a teacher there to educate you and supplied the students with lessons from across the world from other professors or experts on source material. The effect of this is still seen today with teachers linking videos from other educators or even recording their own lessons for the students to watch at their leisure

Arriving not too long after the videotapes came the photocopier. This allows teachers to mass produce papers with extreme ease and efficiency. We still see this in heavy use today throughout most if not every classroom. In my opinion one of the most influential and useful additions to education technology

It helped teachers grade each test almost instantly, saving hours of time and effort that could have been better put into lesson plans or other things.

One of the biggest modern innovations in technology is canvas, schoology and other similar education platforms. This fully revolutionizes the classroom by putting it entirely in an online space where students can view the full course at any time as well as easily see what assignments they have due for any and all classes via a calendar. It allows them to smoothly navigate between classes and work at them on their own time as well as allowing educators to organize assignments and videos all in one familiar space for students.
