Predictions for the future from 100 years ago

1. Schools, colleges and communities will have gymnasiums and exercise is required in grade schools. There will be airships (planes) used to carry people, goods, or by scientists to observe things at great heights. Photographs will be in color and can be telegraphed from any distances.  Persons and things of all kinds will be brought within focus of cameras connected electrically with screens at opposite ends of circuits, thousands of miles at a span. Wireless telephone and telegraph circuits will span the world.Deep freezing will be used to preserve people suffering from a disease or disorder that can’t be cured yet, thawed when there is a cure. online education, where students will learn through their televisions and through pre-recorded tapes rather than from real, live teachers. use of robots to do a woman's makeup, sweep the floor, or cut your hair. 

2. This list of predictions sounds like a wish list of what should happen in the future because it is mostly all about advancement of technology or society.

3. Some predictions that came true were all schools have gyms and PE in lower school is required, scientists and people use airplanes for travel, people can now take a picture in color and send it across the world in seconds on their phones, there is now live streaming on smartphones, wifi circuits now exist everywhere, some people do freeze their brains in hope that in the future a cure will be found, there are now online courses and schools for education. The use of robots for everyday things like vacuuming is possible now but other than that it is not really happening. 

4. The biggest trend with these predictions is improvement in the health of people, travel, and circulation of information. These people saw these as things that could make he world and life easier and more enjoyable to live in. 

5. I predict that in the future people will have their own robots that can diagnose illnesses and provide a cure. I predict that there will be new technology that makes it easier for a student to learn and retain the information taught to them. I predict that there will be a new design for cars so that if a car accident happens, the car cannot be totalled or dented and the passengers will not be harmed.
