Educational Technology – Expectations and Experiences

An Introductory Overview

  • Chapter

Abstract

A great technology-driven process of change is at work in today’s world. Information and communication technology is transforming many day-to-day activities, even in the workplace. Technology is replacing manual labour and transforming the nature of work, and employees might lose the race against the machines. Work life has become more technologically intensive (Wajcman, 2008), and for those with know-how, the threshold to the world of technology has been lowered: it now takes only days for the technologically competent to master new computer programmes and new technological solutions (Cuban, 2009).
