Instructional Technology (IT)

Instructional Technology is many things to the educational world. The definition of IT is seen in two different ways.
  • In the classroom it could be anything the teachers use to convey the message to the students, for example, white boards, overhead projectors, projectors for power point and other computer related activities, computers, and smart boards.
  • It is also how the teacher and students can access or receive the information that is important to the topics that they are studying.
All in all instructional technology can be anything that is used in the classroom to enhance the teaching that is being done and the way that the students view and interpret the information. IT is used in a way so that all students can receive or see the information being broadcasted or taught at the same time or in a mass setting.
