McLuhan’s Tetrad Used to analyze Chalk Boards and Interactive Whiteboards

History of the Chalk/Blackboard ,[object Object],[object Object],“ James Pillans, Headmaster of the Old High School of Edinburgh, Scotland, is widely credited for inventing the blackboard and colored chalk which he used to teach geography. Schoolhouses across America that could afford the slate material adopted the medium because it saved teachers re-writing and allowed them to educate larger numbers of students easily. <by the mid 1850’s> Large-size slabs of slate boards were ordered and shipped across America via the ever-expanding railroad systems.” (Ergoindemand, 2010)

Rhymes of History Obsolete Technology Chalkboard 1. Emerged technology likely from Medieval hornbooks. Common student item through the early 1800’s in U.S.A. and Europe 2. Slate based wall mounted board with a chalk stylus first identified in Edinburgh Scotland 1801. (Ergoindemand, 2010) 3. First appeared in United States at West Point Military Academy, 1801. (Richardon, 1917) 4. Evolved into common school aid by mid-1800 as an framed enameled board. Using colored chalk (calcium sulfate). 5. Becomes obsolete as mounted polypropylene covered boards are developed in the 1970’s– called Dry Erase. 6. Dry Erase boards rapidly take the place of chalkboards due to ease of use, and elimination of hazards of chalk to health and technology. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Parthenon, 20101) Fresh emergence from a previous technology

Science Fiction ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Emerged Technology Interactive Whiteboard IWBs may be a tangential outgrowth of Science Fiction from interactive screens for controlled distance viewing and scientific data display. It is likely the Science Fiction genre had little direct impact on the development of IWBs. Inspired Innovation from the works of Science Fiction.

Disruptive Technology ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Emergence of a wildcard or unanticipated technology ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Nancy Knowlton and David Martin of SMART Technologies stand proudly in front of one of their winning products (Manning, 2002).

Evolutionary Technology ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],New Technology is the direct outgrowth from a similar ancestor (Good Things, 2010) “ hornbook primer of a kind in use from the 15th to the 18th cent. On one side of a sheet of parchment or paper the matter to be learned was written or printed….” (Columbia Encyclopedia, 2008) From: A. W. Tuer, History of the Hornbook (2 vol., 1896, repr. 1968) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

Increasing Return ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Emerged Technology Interactive Whiteboard Since the first IWB was developed in 1991 by SMART technologies, there have been competitors but as of 2008 SMART Technology controlled 53% of the world market in IWBs (Andrews, 2008). The process where one of several competing formats is chosen – even if it is not the most efficient or effective. Betamax

Red Queen ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Emerged Technology Interactive Whiteboard 1. IWBs can be considered to still to emerging. 2. As of 2010 there does not appear to be a set of competitors who are vying for predominance with innovation wars. 3. Companies producing IWBs are becoming more common, but without significant innovations. A competition between two competitors in one form of technology where all others are excluded.
