In society we use many different devices to aid us with our everyday learning. We have come to know these devices to be educational technologies. This paper will focus on educational technologies and the impact that it has on our everyday society.
Key points:
I will address the question of what educational technology is. I will also be talking about what the different uses for educational technologies are.
Within my paper I will be discussing the recent and not so recent research for educational technologies.

I will also be addressing some important accomplishments that have been made in educational technologies.
I will discuss the connection between cognitive learning and educational technologies.
