Onlineschools.com Releases Educational Technology Infographic Highlighting the Evolution of Educational Tools and Classroom Technology

Foster City, CA (PRWEB) July 26, 2011

OnlineSchools.com has announced the launch of From Pencil Pads to iPads: The Evolution of Classroom Technology, an infographic chronicling over 200 years of technology shifts in education. The infographic comes after South Korea announced that it will replace all textbooks with e-books within the next four years, costing $ 2.4 billion.


So much has changed with technology and we are now living in a digital age, said Seth Restaino, OnlineSchools.com Spokesperson. We cannot forget that we have come a long way in digital technology. Most people overlook that it wasnt too long ago that CD-Roms were cutting edge.


E-books, e-readers, tablets and other forms of technology are already popular among college students. More recently, these devices have started gaining popularity among elementary and junior high schools. In 2011, 73 percent of students claim they would not be able to study without digital devices, while in 1993, only 35 percent of public schools had internet access. As traditional teaching and learning processes are quickly being replaced by more advanced methods, schools are doing their best to keep up with changing trends.


As the world makes these transitions to digital learning, OnlineSchools.com thinks it is worthwhile to understand how and why these new tools work, said Restaino. We hope this infographic will bring light to where education has been and where it is going.

CPD Industries Releases Indestructible Carrying Case for New Apple iMac 24

Montclair, CA (PRWEB) November 7, 2007

CPD Industries has announced a new, custom designed travel and shipping case engineered specifically for the delicate new iMac 24" desktop computer.


The case features an indestructible, watertight, airtight design. Plus, a retractable handle and wheels make it easy to take with you anywhere, including on airplanes. "This airline safe, Pelican case sets the standard for iMac users who demand the best design and quality," says Mike Bearden, Director of Marketing at CPD Industries. "This case actually allows people to take the power of the new iMac desktop with them on the road--safely and easily."


Demanding professionals depend on CPD Industries for some of the toughest carrying cases and laptop cases in the business. Bearden began getting calls about cases for the newly designed iMac far before Apple began shipping the desktop computer because laptop and notebook bags won't handle the delicate, revolutionary design of the new iMac."I started getting calls as soon as the new iMacs launched," recalls Bearden.


The lightweight, sleek design of the new iMacs makes them a natural for professionals to want to bring their powerful computers with them on business travel--or on vacation. But the delicate, slim 20" and 24" monitors need the kind of crush proof, stable protection offered exclusively by CPD Industries' custom Apple iMac 24" case.


To create the ultimate iMac carrying case, Bearden and the product developers at CPD Industries were inspired by the compact design Apple already incorporated in the disposable packaging in which the iMacs arrive. The custom foam interior cradles the iMac against drops and crushes, while the break proof outer case protects against spills or submersion. The new CPD Industries computer case for the iMac 24" remains true to Apple design standards--compact and custom. In addition, the Apple iMac 24" case offers an unlimited lifetime quality guarantee against damage.


Now, people who want to take their iMacs with them can rely on Pelican cases, backed by a full lifetime warranty. "We know Apple users demand quality and service together. That's why we look forward to their reception of the cases we designed exclusively for their needs," says Bearden.


Exclusive, indestructible, travel-ready iMac 24" cases can be ordered online at their website. The average shipping time is only 5 days.


About CPD Industries: The CPD Industries network of companies provides the most comprehensive packaging solutions available on reusable carrying cases for corporate applications. The network consists of sites that are leaders in their respective vertical markets, such as Communications, Camera & Photography markets, Computers, Electronics, Food & Beverage (Wine), Guns & Weapons, Medical, Transportation and other Industrial or market-specific shipping & carrying case applications.
