Defining the "Field"

Defining the "Field"- After reviewing the definitions that have been complied over the years; I noticed that the definition changes with the time. As technology evolved over time the definition of instructional technology changed too. This video attached explains how I would define the field of educational technology. Educational technology is the instruction of how to use technology to enhance the learning experience. An educator in the field of educational technology would be responsible for continual learning of the latest technologies in order to educate others. Educational technology is beneficial for all careers where technology is needed such as retail, corporate jobs, education, and medical fields.
