Theorising technology in education: an introduction
Where theory helps. Having more theory is not a panacea for addressing the shortcomings highlighted earlier, but it can help in conceptualising technology in more nuanced and critical ways - a point made some time ago in Bulfin, Johnson, and Bigum (Citation 2015).Theory helps by providing a lens on a given phenomenon and by providing a language to develop understandings and/or critique.
PDF Theories and Research in Educational Technology and Distance Learning
educational technology, this theory is mainly applied in the educational technology training. The theory of diffusion of innovation describes the steps of technology innovation, process and characteristics of accepting new technologies, as well as receivers' role in the receiving process of technological innovation.
Learning Theories: The Role of Epistemology, Science, and Technology
Moreover, theories reflect not just the epistemology but also the science and the technology of the time. This article examines learning theories through three perspectives: epistemology, science, and technology and addresses the opportunities and dangers that technology poses to education in the twenty-first century.
Educational Technology Adoption: A systematic review
Technology acceptance, as the first step of technology adoption, is an attitude towards technology, and it is influenced by various factors. According to the Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT) (Rogers, 1962, 1995 ), adoption is a decision to make full use of technology innovation as the best course of action available.
Technology and Theories of Learning
Abstract. Within this chapter we provide an overview of the range of theories of learning that have been harnessed within the design and development of TEL environments. We start by aligning the history of TEL with the history of learning theory, from behaviourism to information processing, to the rise of constructivism, to a turn to the social ...

In this introduction we describe what led us to organise this issue, we stress the importance of theorising and we introduce the contributions that appear later.
The Impact of Technology on Education Theory
Introduction The development of technology is bound up with education in two basic ways. First, it creates a need for training, such as training staff when new equipment arrives in an organization (Emad, 2010), but also with less formal and more educative effect on the development of computer skills in personal life.

Where is the "theory" within the field of educational technology
The present paper examines how explicitly existing theory was identified in previous research, how theories were applied and how often these theories were advanced in education technology research. In the majority of cases, explicit engagement with theory was absent. Many studies either were wholly bereft of theories or made vague use of theory.

Revolutionizing pedagogy: navigating the integration of technology in
2.1. Self-efficacy model. In the 21 st century technology integration signifies the importance in education for effective teaching and learning (Mtebe & Raphael, Citation 2018; Wright & Akgunduz, Citation 2018).One of the theories adopted in this paper is the extension of Social Cognitive Theory that is Bandura's Self-Efficacy Theory.
Educational Technology Theory
Educational Technology Theory. Various pedagogical perspectives or learning theories may be considered in designing and interacting with educational technology. E-learning theory examines these approaches. These theoretical perspectives are grouped into three main theoretical schools or philosophical frameworks: behaviorism, cognitivism and ...
Educational Technology Adoption: A systematic review
According to the Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT) (Rogers, 1962, 1995 ), adoption is a decision to make full use of technology innovation as the best course of action available. The key to adoption is that the adopter (individual or organization) must perceive the idea, behavior, or product as new or innovative.
Theories Underpinning Learning with Digital Technologies
Learning theories adopted for technology-supported learning will depend on the context and purpose of the learning and the desired learning outcomes. It is inevitable that the blending of more than one learning theory in the design of a sequence of pedagogically sound learning activities would be required.
Critical theory and the question of technology: The Frankfurt School
To answer this question an account of the theory of technology across critical theory will be provided as a starting point. The second section offers a contemporary assessment of the relevance of the theory of technology in critical theory, taking recent literature on digitization and surveillance capitalism as examples that appear to confirm the prognoses of first-generation critical theory.
What Are the Theories Behind Educational Technology?
