This article doesn't describe the current state of educational technology, but it is (currently) a pretty good list of the educational theories related to the use of educational technology. No, connectivism is not included, but one wonders how close distributed cognition fits the description. George? Anyhow, I'm linking to this because I found it in the partially completed Foundations of Educational Technology, currently housed on a wiki at the University of Georgia. This, in turn, is one of four online collections or books edited by Mike Orey, as listed in an interview posted by Susan Smith Nash. And once again, I observe that I never fail to be impressed by the work that one finds in every corner of our field. Orey may not blog, but interviewing him and posting all this information is a good idea, because it makes his work accessible to a wider audience.
