A brief historical overview: Lessons from the American experience with educational tech... - 2 views

  •  
    Lots of great quotes in this article. I also like that it incorporates impact of learning theory on edtech: objectivism, behaviorism, cognitivism, constructivism & postmodernism.
  •  
    There are a lot of interesting bits of information in this article. It is interesting that the author discusses why changes in education have taken place. I haven't considered war as a driving force behind educational reform before. It is also interesting to learn that the University of Phoenix is the largest university. This article is a great find!

    Great visual timeline of instructional technology with informative quotes. I think that it is interesting to note that technology is not driven by education but rather changes in technology drive education.

The History of Technology in Education - 2 views

  •  
    This is a video that goes through the different phases of technology use in Education. It is an advertisement for Smart equipment, but it's still an interesting short video
  •  
    I noticed that the commonality over time was the users ingenuity in how he interfaced with the given resources.
  •  
    Nice find. Interesting how they showed the digital age in 1995 with people connecting all over the world, but then back in the classroom in 2000 with smartboards not really used to connect with others. In the video, it doesn't look like the smartboard is changing the classroom dynamic of teacher-centered learning.
