  1. Erin Brinkerhoff http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomical_clock A Timeline of Technology

  2. Strand 1: 8000 BC to 1750 • Agricultural Age: This was a time when extended families lived together. Children were homeschooled or learned in a one-room schoolhouse. People traveled by foot or on a horse. The family business was agriculture. http://www.stanthonyfresno.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/ag.jpg

  3. Strand 1: 1750 to 1950 • Industrial Age: This age saw the introduction of nuclear families. Factories became the way to make money. Children attended public schools where they were grouped by age and grade level. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/04/Industry_smoke.jpg

  4. Strand 1: 1950 to 2005 http://www.chandlercaregivers.com/images/Information.jpg • Information Age: During this era, families changed yet again to represent broken homes, i.e. there were one parent households and in some two parent households, both parents were the same sex. Electronic technology took off and included cell phones, computers, various vehicles, and the internet.

  5. Strand 1: 2005 to Present • Communication Age: This is the newest age. It has taken technology to a new level. Families haven't changed much but technology has expanded to allow people to ignore distance and live, work, and collaborate together. This era depends on social media as a vehicle for this collaboration. It allows us to share and spread ideas with the click of a button. School has morphed to include technology and, in some cases, has allowed for a move back to a "one-room schoolhouse" in a digital sense. http://blog.w3i.com/wp-content/uploads/communication.jpg
