Hello from TOJET
TOJET welcomes
you.
In this
century, technological advances have been rapid, with the result that
distributors of educational hardware and software are constantly coming up with
new options for global organizations, individuals, and families. These
technological advances have led to a variety of new educational practices. A
relatively new practice for global educators is e-learning. In the world, k12
and university level education have adopted the use of internet in the
instruction of courses, and the educational system has benefited greatly from
the internet.
As global
society begins to live in the 21st century, one of the principal
goals of global education is to offer equal educational opportunities for all
students. To achieve this objective at the all levels, educators use e-learning
system to deliver instruction through internet. In this system, learning and
teaching facilities made available in one place are delivered to one or more
other places using internet.
The
Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology is online journal and published
only through internet. In online system, accessing articles is
available in one place are delivered to all over the world using internet.
TOJET`s quality research papers on theory, applications and development of
educational technology can be reached easily from Asia, America, Europe,
Australia, and others through internet.
The
Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology
is the center of research
about educational technology used in instruction. The main goal of TOJET is to
establish a bridge the gap between theory and practice. To help bridge the gap,
TOJET
provides readers with the new developments in educational technology world-wide
and a main source for academics and professionals in the expanding fields of
educational technology. Articles consist of all kinds of
quality
research on
theory, applications and development of educational technology.

honored to be the editor in chief of TOJET. I am always proud of TOJET for its
valuable contributions to the field of educational technology.

both theory and practice in the field of educational technology.
