Course description
  • Educational Technology
  • 16 weeks
  • Offered at Georgia Tech as CS6460
  • This class is simultaneously an introductory course about educational technology and an advanced, project-oriented class on designing or researching technology’s intersection with education. As such, the course provides information about a large number of topics within educational technology, including pedagogical strategies, research methodologies, current tools, open problems, and broader issues. The scope of the material provided goes beyond what any one person could reasonably learn in a semester. Instead, you will select those areas that appeal to you or that support your ultimate project ideas. For example, if you’re interested in research, you may focus on the applicable research methodologies to your chosen area of investigation, relevant pedagogical strategies or theories, and the current state-of-the-art within that community. If you’re interested in design, you may focus on the relevant pedagogical strategies or theories for your chosen domain, the current popular tools within that domain, and open problems that need to be addressed.

  • Designing technologies that can help learners learn better

  • Current problems in the field
  • Broader issues surrounding the use of tools in supporting education
  • Present tools that address those problems
  • In order to succeed in this class, you should be able to answer yes to the following questions:
  • Note that prior experience with EdTech is not required beyond your prior OMS coursework. Note also that because they project is very open-ended, you’ll be able to define a project that is realistic within your technical qualifications. So, no specific programming knowledge is required. If you choose more of a research-oriented track, you may not need to do any programming at all.
  • See the Technology Requirements for using Udacity.
  • This class is built on a number of pedagogical strategies, including project-based learning, authenticity, and apprenticeship. The ultimate goal, supported by these strategies, is that through this class you will make an actual contribution to the field of educational research, and start a project that could be continued even after the semester is over through academic publications, ongoing research programmes, start-up businesses, or deployment within the OMSCS program.
