Computing and IT

Paper Summary:

In this article, the writer examines the role of computing and IT in the productivity gains during the 1970s and again during the late 1990s and early millennium. The proposition is made that not only are these productivity gains due to computing and IT improvements in the workplace, but also to the introduction of computing and IT in to the educational system. The writer notes that some analysts believe these recent gains are going to continue to some degree.

From the Paper:

"The degree to which technology and technological applications have altered the character and context of the workplace is both significant and profound. However, because of the pervasive nature of contemporary technological applications, the significance of the change often goes unnoticed or unrecognized. Yet, one needs to look no further than the average elementary classroom to understand the degree to which society's future workers have been affected."
