Abstract
[approx. 100-200 words] Outside of the classroom, ‘Technology’ is primarily driven by social factors such as the growing home entertainment and games sectors – whilst technology within education is driven by pedagogical needs, financial systems and political will. It is very likely that the world of technology will continue to develop at a rapid pace in the short and medium terms, regardless of whether institutions choose to acknowledge this or not. The application of technology in education should prepare students for the world of work, whilst also giving them real-life practical skills. Where, then, do Technology and Education meet? In this chapter, I propose that technology must become so embedded within education that it ceases to be treated as a separate entity. In order to become fully embedded, technology must be properly evaluated against realistic pedagogical, technical and social criteria.
