Technology

Technology: 1. The practical application of knowledge especially in a particular area. 2. A manner of accomplishing a task especially using technical processes, methods, or knowledge.
--Merriam Webster Online Dictionary

Technology Quote
This technology will cut us off from the real world, ruin our memory and reasoning abilities, make users lazy, and make gossip and half truths possible.


Socrates on Writing and the Alphabet about 419 BC

Technology
Machine View: Technology is very closely related with machines or physical systems of some sort.

Social View: Technology includes physical systems and the organization of knowledge for the achievement of practical purposes as well as any tool or technique of doing or making, by which capability is extended.

Based on Luppicini, R. (2005). A Systems Definition of Educational Technology in Society. Educational Technology & Society, 8 (3), 103-109.

Education

Formal, Informal, Non-Formal Education


Formal education: the hierarchically structured, chronologically graded education system,

Non-formal education: any organized educational activity outside the established formal system (corporate training, Khan Academy, book clubs) Informal education: the truly lifelong process whereby every individual acquires attitudes, values, skills and knowledge from daily experience (youtube, parenting, Sesame Street, grandmas recipes).


From Coombs, P. H. with Prosser, C. & Ahmed, M. (1973) New paths to learning for rural children and youth. New York: International Council for Educational Development

What is Intelligence?
Cognitive View Focus of intelligence is within the individual.

Social View Intelligence is distributed among the person, tools, symbols, community.

--Piaget, Binet

--Vygotski, Pea, Perkins

Cole, M., & Wertsch, J. V. (1996). Beyond the individual-social antinomy in discussions of Piaget and Vygotsky. Human Development (0018716X), 39250-256. Available at http://lchc.ucsd.edu/People/MCole/Beyond%20the%20individualsocial%20antimony.pdf

What is Educational Technology

Older definition 1920-1970 (and today?)


Media born of the communications revolution which can be used for instructional purposes alongside the teacher, textbook, and blackboard. . . . The pieces that make up instructional technology [include]: television, films, overhead projectors, computers, and other items of hardware and software. . . (p. 21)
US Commission on Instructional Technology, 1970

More Current 1970


Instructional technology goes beyond any particular medium or deviceinstructional technology is more than the sum of its parts. It is a systematic way of designing, carrying out, and evaluating the whole process of learning and teaching in terms of specific objectives, based on research on human learning and communication, and employing a combination of human and nonhuman resources to bring about more effective instruction.
US Commission on Instructional Technology, 1970

Technocentric vs Systemic Thinking with Educational Technology


A technocentric approach focuses on a technology. A systemic approach, in contrast to a technocentric one, is concerned with the learning culture. --Papert

Technocentric: What can a SmartBoard do?

Systemic: How does a classroom change with a Smartboard?
