Educational technology is the
study and
ethical practice of facilitating
learning
and improving performance by
creating,
One of the earliest means of formal teaching was oral – though human
speech – although over time, technology has been increasingly used to
facilitate or ‘back-up’ oral communication. In ancient times, stories,
folklore, histories and news were transmitted and maintained through
oral communication, making accurate memorization a critical skill, and
the oral tradition is still the case in many aboriginal cultures. For the
ancient Greeks, oratory and speech were the means by which people
.
learned and passed on learning. Homer’s Iliad and the Odyssey were
recitative poems, intended for public performance.
In ancient Greece, the term "techne" was used to refer
to the process of applying knowledge systematically
to the practical art of instruction
The 19th Century paved in the advent of effective
technological development including the production of
textbooks, use of blackboards and improvements in writing
implements like pen and ink Photography was invented,
giving a way to a movement called "Visual Instruction"
 Slate boards were in use in India in the 12th century AD, and
blackboards/chalkboards became used in schools around the turn
of the 18th century. At the end of World War Two the U.S. Army
started using overhead projectors for training, and their use
became common for lecturing, until being largely replaced by
electronic projectors and presentational software such as
Powerpoint around 1990 .
