  3. 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. Agricultural Era 8000 b.c- 1750

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 Industrial Age 1750-1955
