Bachelor Educational Media & Technology
- Courses open to undergraduates include: EM 523 Children’s Literature and EM 570 Introduction to Interactive Software Development.
- The program in Educational Media & Technology prepares graduates for professional careers through a carefully blended curriculum of core courses, electives, and field experiences. Graduates develop competencies in analyzing needs, designing and developing technology-based resources that support diverse learning experiences, and evaluating the effectiveness of technology-supported teaching and learning.
- Through thinking holistically about learning experiences that include technology-based resources, we leverage technology to support, enhance, and improve education consistent with what history and research tell us about effectiveness.
- In core courses, students learn research and history of the field, relevant theories, instructional design, evaluation of learning experiences that include technology-based resources, and advanced technology skills they can apply to the goals and objectives of educators and learning organizations. In the elective courses, students have the option of specializing in the use of technology in one of three general areas:
- Pre-K–12 schools—where graduates find careers as instructional technology specialists, technology directors, and as teachers who want to improve their ability to teach with technology;
- Higher education—where graduates find careers as professors or work with professors and others designing, developing, and evaluating technology-based resources, and in administrative positions;
- Adult learning and training—where graduates find careers as instructional designers, training directors, workplace performance analysts, researchers, and educational technology specialists in medicine, public health, publishing, government, or across business and industry.
Because virtually every field must employ the educational use of technology, we encourage students to apply what they are learning to their area of interest both in the program and in independent study, practica, and/or internships.
Opportunities for field-based experiences in internships and independent study in some of the most respected and diverse settings in the world round out our comprehensive program. Our extensive alumni network and the diverse opportunities for internships available at Boston University and in the Boston area provide world-class field experiences.
