This article or section is currently under construction

In principle, someone is working on it and there should be a better version in a not so distant future.
If you want to modify this page, please discuss it with the person working on it (see the "history")

This is an outline for a print text on educational technology and of no interest to you for the moment .... DSchneider 18:22, 26 June 2006 (MEST)

Introduction

Definitions of the field

A short history

The role of technology and media in education

Learning theoretical foundations

Note: This chapter should be short, "understandable" and demonstrate why learning theory is relevant for educational technology practise and research.

What is learning theory ?

Learning types, levels and style

Pedagogical foundations

Note: This chapter also should be quite short, introduce terms and relations, etc. Detailed designs will be presented in the next chapter.

Education, pedagogy and instruction

(this should be very short and strongly be linked to learning theory)

Pedagogical strategies and tactics

(Provide a general overview, terms and well know typologies, such as Joyce, Reeves, etc.)

Categorization of learning designs

Major instructional designs

(abstract scenarios)

(Several sections)

(one section / per major family here)

Technologies in education - an overview

Overview
