ABSTRACT
Education Technology is an emerging discipline that combines contemporary education science and information technology science. The major setting and discipline construction of educational technology abroad focus on design. The training of talents aims to improve the design ability of students, and the training of professional talents is highly cross-cutting and attaches great importance to practice. Therefore, few colleges and universities set up undergraduate majors, and most schools focus on training masters and doctoral talents. This article takes Florida State University and Carnegie Mellon University as examples respectively expounds two types of typical educational technology talent training cases, analyzes the status quo of international educational technology disciplines and majors, and helps to contribute to the new era of Japanese educational technology disciplines and majors. The development of education technology provides a reference for reference, to promote the sustainable development of educational technology professionals in colleges and universities.
