Educational Technology Questions and Answers

Q: In the mobile learning approach ...................... tool is included as a interactive type of learning.

The interactive tool is teleconferencing (printed 'Teleconferncing').Teleconferencing, by audio or video, connects teacher and learners in real time, so learners can ask questions and discuss as the session goes on.

Q: Assistive technology is any ............ that helps student work around challenges so they can learn, communicate and function better.(i) Device(ii) Software(iii) Equipment

All three, so the answer is (i), (ii) and (iii).Assistive technology is any device, piece of equipment, or software that helps a person with a disability work around challenges to learn, communicate and function. Examples range from hearing aids and wheelchairs to screen readers, speech-to-text programs and communication boards.Limiting it to devices, to equipment, or to devices and software leaves out a recognised category, which is why the narrower options are wrong.

Q: The origin of ................ technology is based upon psychological laboratory experiments.

The key's answer is behavioural technology.Behavioural technology applies the principles of behavioural psychology, worked out in laboratory experiments such as Skinner's operant conditioning studies with rats and pigeons, to the modification of human behaviour, including teacher behaviour. Reinforcement, shaping and contingency management all come from these experiments, and microteaching and interaction analysis grew from the same approach.Teaching technology draws on philosophy, sociology and science more broadly. Instructional technology is concerned with designing instruction and learning materials. Media technology refers to the hardware and software of communication. Only behavioural technology is rooted directly in laboratory experiments in psychology.

Q: Teaching technology is an application of ................. knowledge to teaching for achieving some specific learning objectives.(i) Philosophical(ii) Sociological(iii) Scientific(iv) Individual.

The knowledge applied is (i), (ii) and (iii): philosophical, sociological and scientific.Teaching technology is described in Indian educational technology texts as the application of philosophical, sociological and scientific knowledge to teaching, in order to achieve specific learning objectives.

Assistive technology helps students (i), (ii) and (iii): learn, communicate and function better.Assistive technology is any device or system that increases, maintains or improves the functional capabilities of a person with a disability. Screen readers and Braille displays help students learn, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices help them communicate, and wheelchairs, hearing aids and adapted keyboards help them function better in daily activities.Each of the narrower options leaves out a real purpose: communication is a central aim, and so are learning and everyday functioning.

Q: Generally ................ these three types of technologies are involved in Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI).(i) Hardware(ii) Software(iii) Courseware(iv) Contentware

The three technologies are (i), (ii) and (iii): hardware, software and courseware.Computer Assisted Instruction needs hardware (the computer and its devices), software (the operating system and authoring programs) and courseware, the instructional programs and lesson materials designed for teaching a particular subject. Courseware is the educational content packaged for computer delivery.'Contentware' is not a standard category in descriptions of CAI; the content is part of the courseware.

Generally ................ these three types of technologies are involved in Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI).

(i) Hardware
(ii) Software
(iii) Courseware

A.(i), (ii) and (iv)
B.(i), (iii) and (iv)
C.(i), (ii) and (iii)

The three technologies are (i), (ii) and (iii): hardware, software and courseware.

Computer Assisted Instruction needs hardware (the computer and its devices), software (the operating system and authoring programs) and courseware, the instructional programs and lesson materials designed for teaching a particular subject. Courseware is the educational content packaged for computer delivery.

'Contentware' is not a standard category in descriptions of CAI; the content is part of the courseware. Every option containing (iv) is therefore wrong.
