TimeLine of Toffler’s Waves By Na-Ajele Williams-Buffonge
Agricultural Era 8000 b.c- 1750 • This phase took about a 1000 years to phase out. • Today’s society no longer emphasises on the agriculture revolution. However, a few tribal population such as New Guinea, and South America still practices this (Toffler,1980,p 13). • The possession of land equated to power, structure of family unit, culture, life, politics and the basis of economy (Toffler 1980,p. 21). • Community produced their desired food and the economy was decentralized(Toffler,1980,p. 21). • Family unit was huge and was required to work on the land. • Education was limited and the communication used was the oral tradition.
Industrial Age 1750-1955 • This is a major era. This is the transition from producing food to making and selling everything. • The era facilitated in constructing buildings, mills, railroads and the construction of plants to make cars. It was a mechanical era and the emphasis was placed on constructions, factories, and assembly line(Toffler,1980,p.24). • This era required families to be smaller and be able to mobile(Toffler,1980,p.25) • School was not conducted by priests , children now have to go school and learn how to read, write, and math. • Families change from producing food themselves to the concept of sale, barter, and exchange (Toffler, 1980,p.39). • Communication stem from oral and written. • Innovations in this era are the typewriter, telephone, and transportation
Informational Era (1955-2006) • A period that is still ongoing. • It moves from industrial work to the age of computers and electronic community. • It can be seen as the media age. • Family no longer have to be moving all over the place. A nuclear family is not the only family unit that is accepted. Single family is now accepted. • Embraces new literacies.
4th Wave ????Communication Technology (2007-2017) • We are in the 4th wave. • Communication technology is the next wave. • Embraces technology and new literacies. • It supports all family units. • Embraces computers and the internet. • This period is driven by information technology(cell phones, IPod, media. • Changes how education is conducted. Media, and internet are embraced. • New Literacies skills.
