2. ● Technology' in its broadest terms could
include overhead projectors and even pen and
paper but, in the context of Learning
Technology, it is generally understood that we
are talking about technologies that have
arrived with the 'Information Revolution' i.e.
those associated with computers.
3. ● Application of system approach to
education and Training. Emphasis the
interrelation of Men, Machine,
Methods, Media and Materials (5M’s).
MEANING OF EDUCATIONAL
TECHNOLOGY
4. ● Educational Technology is defined as
development, application, and
evaluation of systems, techniques, and
aids to improve the process of human
learning.
5. Transmitting information.
Assisting the practice of specific
skills.
Contribution to the provision of
feedback.
Educational Technology-Objectives
6. The need to reach out to maximum number of
students.
To offer greater opportunities for independent
study.
To design, modify and develop appropriate
equipment /aids suitable and relevant to the
educational process.
7. To identify the educational needs of the
learner.
To identify the necessary teaching learning
materials.
To plan teaching strategies, models and
methods as per the need and objectives.
8. To evaluate the effectiveness of teaching .
Strategy in terms of learning outcomes.
To provide appropriate feedback to
student as well as teachers.
9. To modify the teaching learning
process on the basis of feedback
received.
10. Spelling out Educational goals and
Objectives
based on individualized and social needs.
Smart use of technology reduces wasted
time, energy, and money.
Scope of Educational Technology
11. ● Planning of curricular and co-
curricular inputs in order to realize
planned goals and objectives.
Curriculum Development
12. Developing Teaching-Learning materials and Resources
Develops necessary learning materials in the form of
programmed learning books, computer learning packages,
mass media instruction, individualized self-instructional
packages etc.
Developing Human resource
ET covers the area of teacher education.
13. Developing Strategies
Teaching strategies, approaches and methods are devised
and developed catering to different types of students.
Developing Multi-Sensory Aids
Design, development of audio visual aids.
* Feedback Mechanism and Modification
ET develops tool of evaluation to provide feedback.
14. Develops Passive Instruction Services
Educational radio, TV, computers are used for
transmitting information. They are passive services since all
decisions are in the hands of the providers, i.e., what to be
presented, for how long, in what sequence and when.
15. Develops Interactive Instruction Services
ET tries to provide opportunities for the learner to
control the pace, mode of presentation etc. eg. Computer
Assisted Instruction (CAI), Teleconferencing via Internet etc.
* Develops Learning Environments
ET develops learning environment that are learner
friendly. Eg. Simulation
16. Developing Information Resources
ET bridging the gap between developments in Information Technology
and Education. Information Resources : Eg. E-libraries, On - Line
Encyclopedia, World Wide Web,
Develops Communication Devices
ET has developed communication devices for students
who have mental capability to communicate, but are not able
to speak
17. Develops Communication Devices
ET has developed communication devices for students
who have mental capability to communicate, but are not able
to speak
18. The application of technology to any process of educational
enterprises.
@ Use of the technological advancement in terms of various
equipments, materials, and machines for educational
purposes.
Technology in Education
19. @ It involves the increasingly complex range of
audiovisual equipment, sophisticated
electronic devices like projectors, films, radio,
TV, tape recorder, computers etc for
individualized and group learning.
20. Technology of Education
● Technology of Education is the application of
psychology of learning theories, principles of
instruction, curriculum, and learning to the process of
education.
21. ● In this the educationalist are involved in
designing and evaluation of system of learning.
22. ● It enables a teacher to use a variety of media
and modes to make his teaching effective.
23. Providing multiple material types for all learning styles.
Enhancing communication between faculty/student and
student/student.
Promoting constructivist and active learning.
Enhancing collaborative teaching and learning
Technology can enhance teaching
and learning by:
24. Providing asynchronous and synchronous communication.
Promoting higher expectations via peer review and
feedback.
Providing prompt progress information.
Enabling stronger group collaboration.
Promoting and fostering life long learning.
25. ● Alignment: Technology should be used for a purpose—not
for the sake of being flashy and not as a distraction from
other forms of pedagogy.
● Accessibility: Be sure that the technology that you intend
to use is accessible to your students.
BEST PRACTICES FOR USING TECHNOLOGY
26. •Assessment: As with lectures, discussions, and
labs, provide your students with guidance when
dealing with media technologies.
•Reinforcement: Technology should be used as
reinforcement of and supplement to your
teaching
