Educational Technology: Five Domains and Their Applications Report

This report examines the five core domains of educational technology: design, development, utilization, management, and evaluation. The design domain focuses on specifying learning conditions, including instructional systems, message design, instructional strategies, and learner characteristics. Development involves translating designs into tangible forms, such as print, audio-visual, integrated, and computer-based technologies. Utilization prepares learners, guides interactions, and integrates technology into organizations. Management administers resources like projects, budgets, and information systems. Finally, evaluation determines the value of instructional programs through problem analysis, criterion-referenced measurement, and formative/summative evaluations. Each domain is elaborated with relevant examples, showcasing the interconnectedness and importance of these domains in enhancing the learning process. The report is supported by references to key literature in the field.
