NMR "Sketchpad" by Ivan Sutherland - My Opinion

I think that Sketchpad was definitely a huge breakthrough in computer technology. It layed the foundation for basically all computer graphics and drawing programs that we now have. Sketchpad is the invention that has now made possible the new classroom/presentation boards which allow you to actually draw and work on the actual computer monitor which is a huge display. This development is very important in teaching computer software programs to students because it allows teachers to physically show students the processes required to complete tasks on particular programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, After Effects, Flash, etc..
