EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY

Educational technology is the effective use of technological tools in


learning. As a concept, it concerns an array of tools, such as media,
machines and networking hardware, as well as considering theoretical
perspectives for their effective application.

Educational technology is not restricted to high technology.


Nonetheless, electronic educational technology has become an
important part of society today. Modern educational technology
includes (and is broadly synonymous with) e-learning, instructional
technology, information and communication technology (ICT) in
education, EdTech, learning technology, multimedia learning,
technology-enhanced learning (TEL), computer-based instruction (CBI),
computer managed instruction, computer-based training (CBT),
computer-assisted instruction or computer-aided instruction (CAI),
internet-based training (IBT), flexible learning, web-based training
(WBT), online education, virtual education, personal learning
environments, networked learning, virtual learning environments (VLE)
(which are also called learning platforms), m-learning, and digital
education. These labels have been variously used and understood, and
conflate to the broad domain of educational technology and e-learning.
These alternative descriptive terms are all more restrictive than
“educational technology” in that they individually emphasize a
particular digitization approach, component or delivery method. For
example, m-learning emphasizes mobility, but is otherwise
indistinguishable in principle from educational technology. Theoretical
perspectives and scientific testing may influence instructional design.
The application of theories of human behavior to educational
technology derives input from instructional theory, learning theory,
educational psychology, media psychology and human performance
technology.

Educational technology includes numerous types of media that deliver


text, audio, images, animation, and streaming video, and includes
technology applications and processes such as audio or video tape,
satellite TV, CD-ROM, and computer-based learning, as well as local
intranet/extranet and web-based learning. Information and
communication systems, whether freestanding or based on either local
networks or the Internet
in networked learning, underlie many e-learning processes.
Educational technology and e-learning can occur in or out of the
classroom. It can be self-paced, asynchronous learning or may be
instructor-led, synchronous learning. It is suited to distance learning
and in conjunction with face-to-face teaching, which is termed blended
learning. Educational technology is used by learners and educators in
homes, schools (both K-12 and higher education), businesses, and
other settings.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

TTL 2 is a 3-unit course which will focus on the application, design,


production, utilization, and evaluation of information and evaluation of
information and communications Technology (ICT) materials for
teaching and learning in Secondary Language (English and Fiipino)
Education Programs. The major requirement for this course is an ICT-
integrated and Project-based learning plan aligned to the K to 12
curriculum. All the learning activities and course requirements will
revolve around the student-teacher developed learning plan
