AOL Dial Up
It would take a long time to get on the internet and if someone was on the internet you could not be on the phone. -
Bubble Bobble
This was my favorite game to play on the Nintendo when I was younger. I remember it freezing and you had to take the cartridge out and blow in it. -
Overhead Projector
I had an overhead projector all through elementary school and part of middle school. If you or the teacher messed up they would have to lick their finger or get a wet paper towel to erase the marker. Also if you did not stand the right way you would blind yourself from the light. -
Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego
This was one of my favorite computer games growing up. It came out in 1985 but I wasn't alive yet to play it. I remember we created our own spreadsheet of the riddles and answers to it so we could catch her quicker. -
Computer Time
During elementary school our teacher took us to the computer lab for computer time. The one program that really stuck out to me was Typing Town. It was the program we used to learn how to type correctly on the keyboard. -
Floppy Disk
In elementary school and middle school I had to save all of my papers on a floppy disk. It was annoying if my work did not save. -
Palm Pilot
In 7th grade our school got to pilot palm pilots for the district. I don't remember using them for school work a lot but I remember kids who got games on them. -
First Cell Phone
All I could do with my first cell phone was call on it. If friends would text me I would get charged for each text. -
Flash Drive
In eighth grade flash drives were used instead of floppy disks. I remember being annoyed that it was changing. -
Laptop
My senior year our district got mini laptops for students to use. -
First Laptop
I got my first laptop when I was getting ready to go to college. -
First iPhone
I got my first iPhone after I got married. -
SMART Board
During my intern year I got to use a SMART board in my classroom. This was a big upgrade since I went to school.
