    Educational technology is the study and ethicalpractice of facilitating learningand improving

    performance by creating, usingand managingappropriate technological processes and resources."

    Educational Technology relies on a broad definitionof the word "technolo

    gy."

    Technology can refer to material objects of use tohumanity, such as machines or hardware, but it canalso encompass broader themes, including systems,methods of organization, and techniques.

    Technology of education is most simply andcomfortably defined as an array of tools that might

    prove helpful in advancing student learningandmay be measured in how and why individualsbehave.

    Some modern tools include but are not limited tooverhead projectors, laptop computers, and

    calculators.Newer tools such as "smartphones" and games

    (both online and offline) are beginning to drawserious attention for their learning potential.

    Media psychology is the field of study that appliestheories in human behavior to educationaltechnology.

    Technology enhanced learning(or TEL) refers to

    the support of any learning activity through

    technology. the definition of TEL must be as broad and general

    as possible in order to capture all aspects:

    Technology enhanced learning (TEL) has the goal ofproviding socio-technical innovations (alsoimproving efficiency and cost effectiveness) forlearning practices, regarding individuals andorganizations, independent of time, place and pace.

    TEL is often used synonymously with E-Learning even though there are significant

    differences. The main difference between the two expressions is

    that TEL focuses on the technological support ofany pedagogical approach that utilizes technology.

    Learning activities can follow different pedagogicalapproaches and didactic concepts.

    The main focus in TEL is on the interplay betweenthese activities and respective technologies.

    TEL & Learning Activities

    12/29

    A learning activity can be described in terms of the

    Resources: creation, distribution, access, compilation,consumption of digital content; tools and services

    Actions: communication, collaboration, interactionwith software tools

    Context: time, duration, surrounding people and locationRoles: A learning activity is carried out by various actors

    in changing roles (e.g. student, teacher, facilitator,learning coach, human resource or education manager).Objective: to support every human in achieving her or

    his learning goals, respecting individual as wellas organizational learning preferences.

    Computer-based learning (CBL) is the useof computers as a key component of the educational

    environment.While this can include the use of computers in

    a classroom, the term more broadly refers to astructured environment in which computers are

    used for teaching purposes.

    The type of computers has changed over the yearsfrom cumbersome, slow devices taking up much

    space in the classroom, home, and office to laptopsand handheld devices that are more portable in formand size and this minimalization of technologydevices will continue.

    Computer-based trainings (CBTs) are self-pacedlearning activities accessible via a computer or

    handheld device.

    19/29

    The term Computer-Based Training is often usedinterchangeably with Web-based training (WBT)

    with the primary difference being the deliverymethod.

    Where CBTs are typically delivered via CD-ROM,WBTs are delivered via the Internet using a web

    browser.

    Assessing learning in a CBT usually comes in form ofmultiple choice questions, or other assessments that

    can be easily scored by a computer such as drag-and-drop, radio button, simulation or other interactivemeans.

    Assessments are easily scored and recorded via

    online software, providing immediate end-userfeedback and completion status. Users are often ableto print completion records in the form ofcertificates.

    1. CBTs provide learning stimulus beyond traditionallearning methodology from textbook, manual, or

    classroom-based instruction. For example, CBTsoffer user-friendly solutions for satisfyingcontinuing education requirements.

    2. Instead of limiting students to attending courses orreading printed manuals, students are able to

    acquire knowledge and skills through methods thatare much more conducive to individual learningpreferences. For example, CBTs offer visuallearning benefits through animation or video, not

    typically offered by any other means.

    3. CBTs can be a good alternative to printed learningmaterials since rich media, including videos or

    animations, can easily be embedded to enhance thelearning.

    4. Another advantage to CBTs is that they can beeasily distributed to a wide audience at a relatively

    low cost once the initial development is completed.

    Computer-supported collaborative learning(CSCL) is one of the most promising innovations to

    improve teaching and learning with the help ofmodern information and communication technology.

    Most recent developments in CSCL have been calledE-Learning 2.0.

    The concept of collaborative or group learning refers

    to instructional methods are designed to encourage

    or require students to work together on learningtasks.

    It is widely agreed to distinguish collaborativelearning from the traditional 'direct transfer' modelin which the instructor is assumed to be the

    distributor of knowledge and skills, which is oftengiven the neologism E-Learning 1.0, even though thisdirect transfer method most accurately reflectsComputer-Based Learning systems (CBL).

    Blogs, wikis, and Google Docs are commonly usedCSCL mediums within the teaching community.

    The ability to share information in an environmentthat is becoming easier for the lay person, has causeda major increase of use in the average classroom.

    1. One of the main reasons for its usage states that it is"a breeding ground for creative and engaging

    educational endeavors."2. Using Web 2.0 social tools in the classroom allows

    for students and teachers to work collaboratively,discuss ideas, and promote information.

    3. According to Sendall (2008), blogs, wikis, and socialnetworking skills are found to be significantlyuseful in the classroom.

    4. After initial instruction on using the tools, studentsalso reported an increase in knowledge and comfort

    level for using Web 2.0 tools.5. The collaborative tools additionally prepare

    students with technology skills necessary in today'sworkforce.
