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")
Definition
Educational technologies are technologies that are used in education. Not to be confounded with educational technology - the field.
Families of technologies
DSchneider is not yet sure which categories to adopt and how to create a global taxonomy.
Basque and Lundgren-Cayrol (2003) found and analyzed 24 different typologies of ICT usage in schools. These authors suggest three kinds of typologies:
- Typologies centered on the teaching/learning act
- Typologies centered on the school and educational actors
- Typologies centered on the learner.
A flat typology of major categories
- This is very provisional
School and student administration
