PROMPT
For your Module 1 product, create an argument either for or against the presented definition of educational technology by the Association for Educational and Communications Technology (AECT). Support your claims with additional research and your personal experiences surrounding educational technology. Your research may be from around the web or scholarly journals, but be vigilant in properly citing all works. Your argument should be no fewer than 500 words, and use APA formatting and style guidelines (found here). To close the argument, take the information presented in the paper and your research documents and create your own personal definition for educational technology.
OUTCOMES GAINED
Create a personal definition for educational technology.
Before my completion of this paper, I knew a very basic definition of educational technology, but not nearly to the depths explored by Lynch and AECT. Through research of the term, I was able to sculpt my own personal definition of educational technology that I hope to continue to evolve as my research and experience with ed tech continues to grow.
