3. How many items did JJ cover in his presentation? Name the items/topics

He covered three items:

  • The Internet
  • The Cd ROM
  • The barcode

4. Do you agree with his choice? Would you choose the same ones or others?

Yes, I'd have included the invention of the IC (Integrated circuit) and all modern digital logic circuits that was created almost 50 years ago. I'd have included the computers that now are able to do thousands of millions of calculations per second.

5. I'd include the following:

  • Transport: From low speed cars to of high speed magnetic-levitating trains.
  • TeleComunication: From the morse code lines to 1TB/S optic-fiber lines.

6. Choose ONE of these topics of change and prepare a short presentation (3 slides aprox) to illustrate your point.
