Hi I'm Maria Correra and um I'm from 5th period.
00:07 - 00:11
And the topic I chose for this presentation was the
00:11 - 00:17
typewriter. So the typewriter was invented by Christopher lay them
00:17 - 00:21
shelves. Um He wasn't that he wasn't the only one
00:21 - 00:24
who actually invented it and made the thing but he
00:24 - 00:26
was the one who thought of the idea that the
00:26 - 00:29
reason why was because he had about blind friend and
00:30 - 00:33
he wanted to enable the blind to write with the
00:33 - 00:39
typewriter. And so however nowadays um we use the typewriter
00:40 - 00:45
or to typing by um with creative writing or typing,
00:46 - 00:48
wrote letters, class works or online books.
00:49 - 00:56
Um And before it was invented um all letters books,
00:56 - 00:59
records et cetera were in by hand.
01:00 - 01:03
And so fun fact about the typewriter was that the
01:03 - 01:08
typewriter was I mean no the idea of of pressing
01:08 - 01:12
ink into paper with the click of a button was
01:12 - 01:13
actually new.
01:13 - 01:17
And I believe it was a huge step for everyone
01:18 - 01:21
um to end technology.
01:22 - 01:27
And so I believe that the typewriter classifies as an
01:28 - 01:29
information and communication technology.
01:30 - 01:34
Because with the typewriter we can type information and we
01:34 - 01:37
can communicate with each other through the internet.
01:38 - 01:42
Um And so the positive impact of the typewriter was
01:43 - 01:46
um we can communicate with each other.
01:46 - 01:53
We can type down um some information or we can
01:53 - 01:54
write down some notes.
01:56 - 01:58
We can do virtual notes now with typing.
01:59 - 02:03
However the negative impacts of a typewriter is that we
02:03 - 02:07
can easily type um false information.
02:07 - 02:09
We can easily offend people online.
02:09 - 02:13
We can easily write down unnecessary and inappropriate things.
02:14 - 02:17
Um So yeah.
02:18 - 02:22
um What the typewriter has to do with stem is
02:22 - 02:26
that science, the science behind the typewriter is that they
02:27 - 02:31
had to figure out how everything should go together, how
02:32 - 02:36
the buttons should be placed so that whenever you click
02:36 - 02:37
it, the end goes to the paper.
02:39 - 02:44
And with technology um we can now type nowadays so
02:44 - 02:47
that we don't have to write everything by hand.
02:47 - 02:52
And engineering with engineering, they had to figure out the
02:52 - 02:55
materials they needed and how to assemble them to make
02:56 - 02:57
the perfect typewriter.
02:58 - 03:02
And with math they had to calculate like how big
03:02 - 03:05
the buttons had to be or how much how much
03:06 - 03:08
ink they had to put or how big the whole
03:09 - 03:09
thing has to be.
03:10 - 03:15
And so yeah, so and the conclusion to my presentation
03:16 - 03:24
is that um the typewriter, like any other things in
03:24 - 03:28
the world has both a positive and a negative impact.
03:29 - 03:35
And I believe that it and it really helped with
03:36 - 03:42
today's world's technology and that without it we would even
03:42 - 03:44
be able to type on our phones.
03:45 - 03:45
Yes.
