 Educational Technology
Educational Technology is the field of study that
investigates the process of analyzing, designing,
developing, implementing, and evaluating the
instructional environment, learning materials,
learners, and the learning process in order to
improve teaching and learning.

 Importance of EdTech
Educational technology in education is important
because it helps today’s teachers to integrate new
technologies and tools into their classroom. Teachers
are able to upgrade and improve the learner-
centeredness of their classroom. It enables teachers to
engage their students in unique, innovative, and
equitable ways. Teachers are also able to expand their
network and connect with other teachers and
educators nationally and globally.

 How does EdTech work?
Teachers and schools can integrate educational
technology into a classroom in numerous ways.
Educational software, or computer-assisted learning,
enables teachers to customize lessons. It also shows
tremendous opportunities to improve students'
learning outcomes, especially in math. Gamifying
problem-solving increases engagement and helps make
learning fun.

BYOD: Stands for "bring your own device." (As
a school policy) it allows students to use their
laptops, tablets, or smartphones in the
classroom.
Flipped Learning: In a flipped classroom,
students watch lectures and other presentations
online before class and then spend time at
school collaborating with peers and working with
teachers.

 Important Terms
Instructional Technology: Instructional tech
creates effective and engaging learning
experiences through software, hardware, and
other digital tools.
LMS: Learning management systems are
software applications that track students'
progress and deliver learning materials, including
textbooks, assignments, and online quizzes.

 Important Terms
Synchronous Learning: This learning format occurs
online in real time. The student and teacher
experience is similar to a traditional classroom,
except it occurs online via a virtual classroom or
video conferencing.
Webinar: Webinars use video conferencing technology
and software to present live or pre-recorded
information on select topics. Live webinars enable
participants to submit questions and comments.

 Flipped Classroom
In the traditional style of instruction, teachers present a
lesson to students and then assign classwork or homework.
The definition of a flipped classroom is the reverse of the
traditional method.
A flipped classroom consists of students completing direct
instruction, such as viewing a lecture online, prior to the
in-class discussion of the material. The intent is for
students to see the material beforehand, also known as
first-exposure learning, so they can learn the concepts at

their own pace. PRESENTATION TITLE 10
