Id come to make my own definition about these: Educational Technology refers to how we improve an existing design through art, controlling its scopes and overcoming its limitations, and rating its efficiency and over-all impact in meeting students educational needs and satisfaction. Instructional Technology for me, refers to planning and designing the flow of your presentation after you have absorbed the thoughts on your chosen source/s and finally with the inclusion of your former knowledge. Educational Media on the other hand is the heart of your presentation because in here is where your content had originated from with the exemption of your prior

Even though I am a future Elementary educator (and wouldnt probably be teaching Educational Technology) I can still be able to let my students appreciate an EDTECH creation through giving balance significance between the topic that they should learn and the process or the technology that Ill be using in teaching. In this way, they wouldnt either be overwhelmed in facts or process (like watching too much presentations and videos). So, students will else be grateful for the EDTECH creation that I used since it serve as the instrument for them to learn the lesson through it. Making a good plan takes time. I would spend enough time in planning my every presentation since this will be the tool whether my students will learn something from me or not, the thing that will speak up to show if Im an effective teacher or not.

knowledge. An instructional creation wouldnt function as well as expected if the creation does not consider the five domains or aspects that a creation should undergo and possess. (I thought about a single word that would define each domain so that, Ill remember the meaning of each easily.) Design- a creation should have a plan. Development- a plan should be given a transformation through thinking of the best way to present it. Utilization- it is the application of art to the plan. Evaluation- is the reaction of the students to your creation/ presentation. Management- is how you use the plan and the art together in the delivery of the topic to a successful one. The Ten Commandments in creating a presentation is really a useful reminder that everyone should contemplate when making one.

A teacher should not stop learning. There are new facts coming and facts of today might be wrong tomorrow. I, as a future teacher should give a precise and new knowledge to my students. Thus, I should rely not just to one source but to as many and newer source as possible.

When making a creation I should think of the five domains that I should be looking into it to see if my creation is a good one. An absence of one domain would mean a revision of it. The Ten Commandments are straight and literal enough for us to understand. Thus, this guide should also be given an importance because this will be the one that will affect our students in absorbing the knowledge contained in our presentation. Most importantly, it is the surface and the one that their eyes would be landing first to see. When our students are not engaged or not attracted by it, they wouldnt mind listening or learning the lesson.
