1993
World Wide Web: Definition, history and facts | Live Science
Personal computers were unheard of until the 1980s. I was
lucky enough to be teaching at that time and part of our in-service training
was to learn the computer. Though it seemed insurmountable and confusing at the
time, I am blessed to have learned what I did back then, in order to feel
somewhat comfortable using today’s technology. The World Wide Web was not used
until the 1990s, and once again, I was able to learn alongside my students,
sometimes with their help. They prided
themselves of being able to teach the teacher. We
were still using card catalogues when I retired from teaching in 2007, yet with
the world wide web, we were fighting against students copying and pasting
reports. I always felt that it was valuable for students to know how to access
information in books. That process may now be a thing of the past.
