MAIN IDEA TO BE LEARNED
Evolution of Media
1. Pre-Industrial Age (Before 1700s)
People discovered fire, developed paper from plants, and forged weapons and tools with stone, bronze, copper
and iron.
2. Industrial Age (1700s- 1930s)
People used the power of steam, developed machine tools, established iron production, and the manufacturing of
various products (including books through the printing press).
3. Electronic Age (1930s- 1980s)
The invention of the transistor ushered in the electronic age.
People harnessed the power of transistors that led to the transistor radio, electronic circuits, and the early
computers. In this age, long distance communication became more efficient.
4. Information Age (1900s- 2000s)
The Internet paved the way for faster communication and the creation of the social network. People advanced the
use of microelectronics with the invention of personal computers, mobile devices, and wearable technology.
