In the EdTech version of SED 600 we have dual goals of learning to conduct education research and learning about the literature on technology in education. We will start with a review of the key ideas in education (constructivism, transfer, zone of proximal development) and then look at how technology related to them. We will conduct a short experiment and then prepare research or development project proposals.
