The Industrial Revolution brought about significant changes in the education system. As societies became more industrialized, there was a growing demand for skilled workers who could read, write, and perform basic math. Governments began to invest in public education systems, making primary education compulsory for all children. This marked the beginning of universal education, as governments sought to create a literate and skilled workforce to meet the demands of the growing industrial economy. The 20th century saw further advancements in education, with the introduction of new teaching methods, technologies, and educational philosophies. The rise of standardized testing, the development of distance learning programs, and the integration of technology into the classroom were all significant milestones in the evolution of education.
