The three prominent people in educational technology in my opinion are Ivan Sutherland, Tim Berners-Lee, and Howard Hathaway Aiken.
Ivan Sutherland was the co-founder of 3D computer molding and visual stimulation that is helpful today in every classroom.
Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. This application is useful in education for students doing research, for teachers to come up with lesson plans, and to promote your school on the web.
Howard Hathaway Aiken invented the IBN automatic sequence controlled calculator in 1943. He started the trend of a calculator which has continues to develop over the years. The calculator has eliminated the process of figuring out hard mathematical problems by hand and saves on time and energy in the classroom for students as well as teachers.
