What is EDUCATIONAL
TECHNOLOGY ?
 Educational technology is a term
used to describe a wide array of teaching-
and-learning–related software and hardware
that’s increasingly being used in college and
university classrooms.
The ultimate goal of educational
technology, also referred to as Ed Tech, is to
enable an improved learning environment,
which in turn is meant to boost student
outcomes. It has also been proven to
increase student engagement and
participation in class.
BE THE CHANGE you want to see IN THE WORLD. Mahatma Gandhi – Civil Rights Activist
 Educational technology refers to technology that usually helps
facilitate collaboration in an active learning environment.

By using educational technology, educators can create digital,

interactive textbooks, gamify lessons, take attendance, assign homework,
hold quizzes and tests and get real time results related to teaching material,
style and format. Educational technology is disrupting traditional
education and teaching methods by offering both teachers and students
the ability to learn in an environment that makes use of non-common
devices such as smartphones, laptops and tablets.
 Educational technology is a field of study that investigates the
process of analyzing, designing, developing, implementing, and
evaluating the instructional environment and learning materials in
order to improve teaching and learning.

It is important to keep in mind that the purpose of educational

technology (also referred to as instructional technology) is to
improve education.

We must define the goals and needs of education first and

then we use all our knowledge, including technology, to design the
most effective learning environment for students.
