摘要：Due to flexibility and vitality nature of the field of educational technology, many attempts have being made by professionals of the field to define educational technology prior to 1960 to date for the purpose of providing a well comprehensive definition of the field which is suitable to the particular period of time. But, in recent years many literatures of the field (especially in Nigeria) outdated definitions are being used to define the filed which do not comprehensively cover the scope of the field nowadays. Thus, this paper elaborates the evolutionary nature of the definition of educational technology, and analyses the differences between each of the definitions. This might be helpful for the professionals of the field to be fully aware of the changing nature of the field, and be able to produce another definition by themselves in the future.
