dc.description.abstractThe first concern of this study is to examine relevant literature so as to arrive at an operational definition of Educational Technology. This is followed by an examination of its growth. The role and growth pattern of educational technology thus defined, the study then proceeds to consider such questions as: what is the role of central services units in institutions of Higher Education in Britain and what are the needs of Ahmadu Bello University? This then leads on to a consideration of the terms of reference for such centres, their committee structures, facilities, finance and administration; and the relationship of such centres to both academic and service departments. In chapter twot the development of educational technology in British Universities is considered in general and in relation to the defiinition already established so as to help better in mapping out the priorities in development which if applied to Ahmadu Bello University (ABU)/ would help meet her needs. In this) such questions as what areas and aspects of educational technology should be covered and in what order - hardware, software or teaching techniques. This is followed by case studies of two specific developments in Wales - one a 'Medium level ' Centre in the University College Cardiff, the other, an area resource Centre geared to meet school needs. Chapter three is concerned with the growth of educational technology in Nigerian Universities) the general level of development is then compared with the situation in Britain and the lessons for the Nigerian activity in developing this area of instruction and service are identified. Chapter four deals with the development of Ahmadu Bello University with special consideration of its educational technology services as well as student and staff growth. The report of a university consultant and the results of a questionnaire on the type of Educational Technology Centre that staff in Ahmadu Bello University would like to have are also discussed. The final chapter sums up briefly the points on the development of Educational Technology and concludes with a description of a model for Ahmadu Bello University.en_US
