Ed Tech and Instructional Technology Related Programs in the United States

This area has many names: Educational Technology, Instructional Systems Technology, Instructional Psychology and Technology, Instructional Design and Technology, Learning Technologies and Design, Instructional Technology, Educational Communications and Technology, Human Performance Technology, etc. Some related areas include learning sciences and information science. In addition, educational psychology is highly linked and often houses the ed tech or instructional technology program. Curriculum and instruction programs often do as well.
