Likewise, we should incorporate different media for their abilities to provide different learning opportunities. We need to design instruction that has value without the technology or despite the medium. Before the lesson dictated the kind media and it seems like now the media dictates the kind of lesson.Īs educators, I think we should plan lessons with both philosophies in mind. What research has taken place in the last 20 years? It seems to me that more than an agreement or disagreement there is more of a shift of thought. Clark's arguments are based on research that dates back 100 years. The information moves more in a circular manner than in and out. What used to be transient information viewed on a tv is now at the user's fingertips and can be viewed as many times as needed, which makes it less transient.

It is interesting to me that all of this research was 20 plus years ago. With that, I agree with Clark, but I also see how the medium can push the instructional design to new directions and offer new perspectives on things which align with Kozma's thinking. A good lesson could be used across different media. The pedagogical stance and instructional design are at the heart of a lesson's success. I think both Kozma and Clark are correct. Can a device influence the message? Can the exact same message be sent through different devices or mediums? I believe the answer to both of these answers is yes. To Clark a medium is just a medium, it is just the device through which the message is sent. When you boil it all down to me it seems like a difference in how the authors define media. I saw valid points on each side of the argument.
