35,000 years of innovative & creative

output supported by “ink”

1873 1961 1981 2010

The interface to our best 2017 tech is

an 1873 innovation

QWERTY

1873 1961 1981 2010

Keyboard used at scale for only

the past +/- 30 years

QWERTY

1873 2016

With a fresh start you would not choose QWERTY on glass

WAIT!!!!!

2016

In 2017 Ink is still heavily used to get work done

Apple has Pencil Microsoft has Surface

Google has Pixelbook

and Android w/Ink

What can we

do?

Source

Kindergarten

Letter/number/shape recognition

Basic Storytelling with pictures & words

Phonics

Sight words

Source

3rd Grade

Spelling, vocab, sentence structure

Addition and subtraction within 100

Multiplication and division within 100

Source

5th Grade

Clear, coherent writing with logically ordered reasoning

Evaluate evidence from literary or informational text

Fractions, decimals

Shape volume

Measure and interpret data

Graphing

We got very attached to the QWERTY keyboard

But remember why we started using it as an interface to

computer systems..

ASCII

An abstraction from 1 & 0’s

paved the way

for higher level

programming

languages

Like FORTRAN

FORTRAN

Formula Translation

IF(A.EQ.0 .OR. B.EQ.0 .OR. C.EQ.0) GO TO

90

S = (A + B + C) / 2.0

AREA = SQRT( S * (S - A) * (S - B) * (S - C) )

WRITE(6,601) A,B,C,AREA

GO TO 10

50 WRITE(6,602)

STOP

We can compile

formula’s

Directly, and in

real time!

Why can’t I

compile this?
