People's Roles in a Computer System

Hello again
Some work I was doing in class; people's roles in a computer system, also what people use computers for...
Past
Present
Future
Not as many people used computers or had access to them
More access for people at home, computers are no longer used just at work
Computers will continue to be made to be used  for larger audiences and larger groups of people
The types of people who used computers were very different to the people who have access to them today
Games are more accessible and can be played by a wider audience, thus enabling computers to be used by a younger audience
More types of people will have access to computers and have reasons to use them. People with different attributes and personalities as well as jobs
Accountants, Business people, Less home computers















I don't know how useful it might be, as most of it just came from my head, but for some more information, try some of these sites;
Wikipedia - yes I know it's wikipedia, but it does help to explain an example of a role in a computer system
Education.com - ways that people use computers today are very different from in the past and possibly in the future

Hope this helps someone... or maybe just gets someone thinking
Clocks again
I need to get a better image...

  1. V,
    It would be great to link to some archival images which show people using technology in the past or present. Future might be a bit harder to define. For example: http://blog.lib.umn.edu/lecy0013/architecture/old-computer-thumb.jpg

    It is great that most of what you wrote came from your head, but please try and add a spoonful of research when we are doing these learning tasks!
