Concept of (Educational Technology)
Educational technology is one of the topics discussed in education. It is a systematic method for designing, implementing, and evaluating the entire educational process in accordance with specific objectives, based on research in learning and human communication and the use of human and nonhuman resources to provide more effective, sustainable, and in-depth education and instruction. In this article, after presenting various definitions of educational technology, we will discuss its history in Iran and around the world, followed by its different stages.
This field is primarily concerned with designing, evaluating, implementing, and revising curricula and educational experiences. In other words, educational technology is a principled and logical approach to solving educational problems and planning lessons, based on systematic and scientific thinking.

This field and its specialization facilitate and improve teaching, learning, and performance through an understanding of how people learn. For this purpose, it may use educational tools and equipment, learning and teaching methods and strategies, or a combination of tools and appropriate teaching methods, depending on the situation.
To make education effective and improve learning, schoolteachers, university professors, and managers and employees of other organizations and various public and private companies working in education must understand how people learn, be familiar with different educational methods, know digital and nondigital media and instructional materials, and understand how, why, and when to use them and how to integrate and apply them in educational programs and learning environments.
This is where they need the field of educational technology and its graduates to improve their teaching and make it more effective through this practical knowledge.
