WIZARDS OF TECHNOLOGY

MATH & SCIENCE

THIS SERIES TELLS THE BIOGRAPHIES OF THE TITANS OF TECHNOLOGY WHO ARE CHANGING OUR WORLD.

In our modern, technology-driven world, a few important individuals have changed the way we

live. With each new, great tech idea, our world becomes more interesting and complex. Many

young people may know the names of the biggest technology and Internet-based companies,

but do they know the story of the creators

and businesses behind names like Netflix,

Google, YouTube & Facebook?

…sets of review questions and ideas for research projects are

interspersed throughout, and the list of resources at the end will

be helpful both to assignment-driven readers and prospective

Pinterest users.
