Educational technology is the use of both physical hardware, software, and educational

theoretic to facilitate learning and improve performance by creating, using, and managing
appropriate technological processes and resources.[1] This field, which is also called EdTech
or EduTech,[2] has been described as a persisting initiative that seeks to bring learners,
teacher, and technical means together in an effective way.[3]

In addition to experiential knowledge drawn from educational practice, educational

technology is based on theoretical knowledge that emerge out of various disciplines such as
communication, education, psychology, sociology, artificial intelligence, and computer
science, among others.[2] It encompasses several domains including learning theory,
computer-based training, online learning, and m-learning, where mobile technologies are
used.
