These inventions were major steps forward for the human race; they were also unfortunately occurring between intervals of thousands of years from one another. While new inventions were occurring in much faster intervals, it was still an extremely slow process. Of course, this is because humans had to establish a base in order to build upon it. It makes sense that working from a base is easier than working from scratch, and therefore, more technological inventions began to appear over shorter periods of time. Each invention began to change and evolve society into a more convenient and healthy state. Eventually, technological enhancements and inventions began to come up every couple of centuries. Humans were inventing things like gunpowder, microscopes, and thermometers every hundred years or so. Then every few decades, they were creating new inventions, such as ideas like Newton’s three laws (1687), the piano (1700s), and steam engines (1712). (Woodford, 2008/2016). One of the greatest technological innovations of all time was the industrial revolution. According to an article on History.com, “In the 1700s, a series of innovations led to ever-increasing …show more content…
In the everyday routine of most humans, they use technological devices which make their lives easier and more convenient, but are not required in order for them to survive. Just a few examples of these types of technological devices are cell phones, computers, calculators, air conditioning, stoves, vehicles, refrigerators, etc. Without many of these things, everyday tasks and activities would be made much harder and more complicated. Technology has become essential components of today’s education system. Essentially, without today’s technology, students would not have the freedom they do now, and they would definitely not be as imaginative as they are today. As time goes on, technology has made things like calculating certain mathematical equations simply by punching them into calculators. As humans make things like this easier, productivity also increases as the workers are under less stress and can do many things much faster. The following is an excerpt from the website the network which stated that, “Let 's take the office as an example. As exhibited by past trends such as BYOD, a more mobile and connected workforce presents value with improved collaboration and productivity gains. Employees thirst for anything that makes it easier to do their jobs.” (Spain, 2015). It is clear that the main
