Instructional Technology Continuum

Hi Technology Educators,

I've been working on a continuum of Instructional Technology.

I think that I may be somewhere in the middle--leaning more towards the constructivist side. Although, I do like to learn visually for some things.

I think that the interaction and constructivism has to be meaningful to the learner and since all learners are different, then the "ideal" place may not be possible on the continuum-only the place for each individual.

I do think that interactive technologies and constructivist learning do tend to go with higher levels of Bloom's taxonomy (Analysis, Evaluation, and Creativity). However, interaction alone does not do it. The technology should be meaningful and provide greater opportunities to learn

in new ways than before.
