The activity requires Shockwave, but a text-only version is also available. The activity features a picture of a home with various pieces of technology. Using a cursor that looks like a volume control knob, you can "slide" to any year you want during the twentieth century and watch the changes in technology. By clicking on the technology, learn when this technology was developed. In addition to this activity, you can also explore a section dedicated to various "People and Discoveries."** =
