    Contextual Outline Humans are social animals and have successfully communicated through the spoken word, and then, as the use of written codes developed, through increasingly sophisticated graphic symbols. The use of a hard copy medium to transfer information in coded form meant that communication was able to cross greater distances with improved accuracy of information transfer. A messenger was required to carry the information in hard copy form and this carrier could have been a vehicle or person. There was, however, still a time limit and several days were needed to get hard copy information from one side of the world to the other. The discovery of electricity and then the electromagnetic spectrum has led to the rapid increase in the number of communication devices throughout the twentieth century. The carrier of the information is no longer a vehicle or person — rather, an increasing range of energy waves is used to transfer the message. The delay in relaying signals around the world is determined only by the speed of the wave, and the speed and efficiency of the coding and decoding devices at the departure and arrival points of the message. The time between sending and receiving messages through telecommunications networks is measured in fractions of a second allowing almost instantaneous delivery of messages, in spoken and coded forms, around the world. This module increases students’ understanding of the nature, practice, application and uses of physics and current issues, research and developments in physics.…

    Telegraph vs. Texting

    • 961 Words

    The electric telegraph, invented in the 1830's, sent messages over wires from one point to another using the short ‘dots' and longer ‘dashes' of Morse Code. By the end of 1861, there were telegraph lines all the way from New York to San Francisco. The 10-day coast-to-coast transit time of the Pony Express was quickly made obsolete by such instantaneous communication and, for those who could afford the cost of a telegram, the telegraph was preferred for its speed over the U.S. mail [source: Wikipedia]. This established one of the first everyday uses of short but extremely quick messaging.…
