  1. Role of Technology in Instruction EDMD 3100 Fall 2000 Dr. Wolf

  2. Types of Technology • Computer-Based • Instructional • CAI, CBI • Administrative • Gradebooks, Lesson Designers, etc. • Productivity • WP, DB, SS • Informational

  3. Types of Technology • Infrastructure • Networks • LAN, ELAN, WAN • Internet • WWW, Email, etc.

  4. Types of Technology • Video-Based • Videodisc • Videotape • Instructional Television

  5. Types of Technology • Hybrid • Multimedia and Hypermedia • CD/I and Interactive Video • Simulations and Virtual Reality

  6. Educational Applications of Technology • Instruction and Presentation • Research • Communication • Creative Expression • Administrative Tasks • Information Analysis, Synthesis, and Presentation

  7. Importance of Technology in Education • Facilitates Delivery of Instruction • Can Enhance Communication and Collaboration • Assists Teachers/Administrators with Non-Instructional Tasks • Trains Students to Use Technology as a Tool!

  8. The Big Six • Eisenberg & Berkowitz (1988) • Instructional Design Model and Problem Solving Model • Based on elements of Bloom’s Taxonomy and Information Literacy Standards

  9. The Big Six • Task Definition • define the problem; identify needed info. • Information Seeking • determine range; evaluate & prioritize • Location & Access • physically locate sources; find information

  10. The Big Six (continued) • Use of Information • engage resources; extract information • Synthesis • organize information; present the information • Evaluation • product (effectiveness); process (efficiency)

  11. The Delta Principle • Level I: Original intended use of technology • Level II: New applications of technology • Level III: Application dependent on technology • Changes can be intended or unintended; positive or negative

  12. Limitations of Technology • Computers are well-suited to tasks that require manipulation of large amounts of data (p. 35). • Choosing computers implicitly means encouraging efficiency, progress, sensation, and data control.

  13. Limitations of Technology (continued) • Computers are poor at: • making judgments • distinguishing between truth and falsehood • identifying beauty • discovering meaning • generating independent ideas • Choosing computers diminishes these values

  14. Summary • There are a variety of applications for educational technology • Problem solving models assist teachers in choosing appropriate resources, and students in applying procedures to solve problems • There are both benefits and detriments to utilizing technology. These can be intended or unintended
