The educational technology is the sum total of activities that can make
someone change their external environments (material) or internal
(behavioral). A systematic application of scientific knowledge resources
needed by each individual process to acquire and use knowledge.
When it comes to superficially "new technologies", we incorrectly using an
adjective, since it again what with the latest mistake, "the latest in
application techniques. In technology education, first as we have said
repeatedly, we must not confuse machines or devices with application of
technologies that have more to do with the organization of means and
resources with the same means. The resort does not have to go out of style,
or be used while it lasts as usual do. An appeal may be eternal if the mind
that uses creativity has adequately planned to make it useful. The Socratic
method we use it, with different content, like we use the blackboard or the
book. An encyclopedia on CD-ROM does not lose its character as a free,
what changes is its method of use, ease and speed in handling, quality,
mobility and sound of your artwork.
USING MULTIMEDIA
Today we can not express in relation to audiovisual technologies, linked to
the media without reference to 'cross-media' or 'media' consisting of the
simultaneous or successive use of various audiovisual resources. Currently,
the term "multimedia" is trying to reduce to a set of computing devices that
make up among them an operational unit. And the meaning is restricted,
confusing the part with the whole. We must not forget that the term
multimedia is already used in treaties of 1965 referred to any joint use of
audiovisual media. We are still far from being in classrooms all
computerized, and we use a complementary manner to the analog and
digital, video, sound and the CD-ROM.
A realistic application of the concept of "multimedia" is the preparation of
teams of various types of materials that develop a particular topic. The kit
contains discs, tapes, slides, sheets, films, leaflets. even three-dimensional
objects, recordings, and psychomotor laboratories for trainings or teaching
of foreign languages. Multimedia slide shows are already using sound and
images from multiple projectors, retrotransparent, etc.. This type of
presentation can now be done using projections from computer programs,
but we must not forget very creative systems, a few years ago, but not by
new technologies should be moot. The planning and programming for this
class of presentations is otherwise very demanding as successful only if
very careful preparation.
