the educators are looking for different technology to be used in teaching different students. The
effective use of the technology in Education has improved the look of education and it gives
more educational chances. Using technology in teaching and learning benefitted both the
teachers and the students. Through the use of technology, teachers have learned how to
integrate technology in their teaching and learning, while students become more engaging, and
enhance their interest in learning.
It is very important that teachers must understand how educational technology takes place in
teaching learning process. Further, it is also necessary that in order to determine appropriate
technology to be used in teaching, one shall understand the concept of the technology in teaching
and l earning. It is also a big help for teachers to determine the different roles of technology in
teaching for learning.
Objectives: This lesson aims to relate educational technology to instructional technology, technology
integration, and educational media. At the end of the lesson, you will be able to:
Educational Technology
Early developments referred to the role of technology in education which signifies the
use of audio-visual equipment that is hardware in educational process. Later
development recognizes the concept of technology of education that is techniques and
methodologies of teaching and learning. This is indeed the software aspect of
educational technology. Educational technology is also different from audio-visual aids.
Educational Technology is a vast subject concerned with the application of scientific
knowledge about learning and conditions of learning in order to improve the
effectiveness of teaching, learning and evaluation.
o Audio –visual aids are merely the aids or resources, i.e., materials which are
employed to improve the quality of the message. Audio-visual aids are only a part
of educational technology.

TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION
refers to the use of technological hardware in education. It is not only limited to how
technology is used in the teaching and learning. This also refers to the application of
technology to any those processes involved in operating the institutions which house the
educational enterprise.
INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY
it refers to those aspects of educational technology that are concerned with instruction
as contrasted to design and operations of educational institutions. Further, this also
refers to the systematic way of designing, carrying out, and evaluating the total process
of learning and teaching in terms of specific objectives.
TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION
is the use of learning technology to introduce, reinforce, supplement, and extend skills.
Basically, this is the use of technology to enhance and support educational environment,
teacher instruction, and student learning.
EDUCATIONAL MEDIA
is all means of communication that includes prints, graphics, animations, audios, and
audiovisuals. In education, this also refers to the channels of transferring of information
to learners and also those gadgets and machines that are needed in transmitting
information to learners.
Objectives: This lesson aims to help you to understand the usefulness of technology in the
teaching and learning process. At the end of the lesson, you will be able to:
1. select appropriate technology to be used in teaching and process; and
2. trace the history of educational technology.
Introduction
Understanding the how technology works in education and how are these will be
used in the teaching and learning process are very difficult especially in teaching and in this
digital age. That is why it is very important that as teachers in the future where technology is
continuously developing, it is very important that we have to keep updated on what is going on.
In this lesson, you will be able to learn how to choose appropriate technology to be
used in the teaching and learning process and be able to trace back the history of educational
technology.

Summary
Objectives: At the end of this lesson, you are expected to trace the development of Edtech and
information and communication technology.
A. Stone Age
B. Bronze Age
C. Iron Age
D. Ancient Civilization
Paul Saetller- traced the development of Edtech during the ancient civilization when the tribal
priests introduced bodies of knowledge and ancient culture, and introduced sign writing or
pictographs to record or transmit information
- The greatest advances in technology and engineering came with the rise of the ancient
civilization which stimulated and educated people and societies in the world to adopt new
ways of living

- The writing is done from right to left found on seals used in trade and official and
administrative activities
Chinese Civilization
- Contributed technology like paper, seismological detectors , toilet paper, matches, iron
plough, suspension bridge, wheelbarrow, parachute, natural gas as fuel, magnetic compass,
elevated relief map and gun powder
- Script was made up of pictures of the real things like birds, animals, different tools. These
pictures are known as hieroglyph.
Hieroglyphics- a writing system invented in Egypt and is the second oldest form of writing.
It takes the form of pictures, each representing an entire word, syllable, or phoneme.
- Invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenburg, a German inventor. This event
was a prime development factor in the history of educational technology to convey the
instruction as per the need of the complex and advanced-technology cultured society
Pre-industrial Phases
Utilization of gadgets like Slate, Horn book, Blackboards, and Chalk. Textbook was used
with few illustrations. Edtech during those times was associated with simple aids like charts
and pictures.

1873
- In 1929, the first practical use of regular television broadcast was done in Germany. The
Olympic Games in 1936 were shown on television in Berlin. Then open circuit television
began to broadcast entertainment in 1950. In 1960, television was used in education.
The UNESCO uses the term ICTs to describe “the tools and the processes to access,
retrieve, store, organize, manipulate, produce, present, and exchange information by electronic
and other automated means.
-The promoters of this new paradigm claimed that information changes so fast that one
should update it almost everyday. And the solution: The Internet and Internet-based
training.
-All you could do on the Internet that time was text and pictures and some early
experiments with animations, video and audio.
-The purpose and reason to promote this was the believe that it is cost-efficient as there
were no more travelling to training or absence from workplace.

Objectives: At the end of the lesson, the students are expected to:
a. Infer the roles of Edtech in the 21st century classroom.
Edtech is closely related to the four pillars because technology skills and tools help the learner
attain them.
A. Learning to Learn
- Enables one to address coping with situations that need knowledge, greater
intellectual curiosity, shapes the mental faculties and enables one to make judgement
on the things and situations they experienced.
-Learning to learn is composed of the necessary whole of learning to know and
requires the constant updating in exercising memory and thinking, in addition to
paying attention to things and people.
B. Learning to do
- Equips one with certain skills to undertake certain tasks to be productive and
competent. The learners put into action what they learned and the task is translated
to actual manipulation or productivity.
C. Learning to live together
- Provides the individual the potential for harmonious relationship with people around
them. It also emphasizes the idea about unity in diversity in terms of race, religion,
and personal beliefs.
D. Learning to be
- Gives an individual a picture of what he plans to be after certain periods in his
lifetime. The learners outlook about himself may vary from time to time as he realizes
certain episodes in his life.
Element 1. Motivation
a. Gaining Learner Attention
- Substantial evidence indicated that teachers frequently capitalize on the
novelty and television-like attraction of computers and multimedia to achieve
the essential instructional goal of capturing and holding student’s attention.
b. Encouraging the Learner through Productive Work
- Teachers encourage students create their own technology-based products
c. Increasing Perceptions of Learner Control
-students are motivated by feeling that they in control of their own learning.
d. Technology Use as Motivation
-students enrolled in schools where teachers teach using technology
-Element 2 which deals with instructional capabilities is closely related to the four pillars
of education, namely: learning to know, learning to do, learning to be, and learning to live
together.
a. Linking Learner to Information sources
b. Enabling Learners Visualize Problems and Solutions
c. Tracking Learners’ Progress
d. Linking Learners to Learning Tools
Activity 3. This activity will allow you to get information from teachers and students on the
importance of technology in teaching and learning.
