Educational technology as a profession: the relationship between educational technologists, learners, materials and systems (Moore & Elsworth, 2014)
Moral imperative begins with a choice by instructor or administration, and it carries a substantial responsibility so that the directives ought to predict, propose and perform values to ensure the learning is better served by ICT.
The definition: Educational technology is the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and improving performance by creating, using, and managing appropriate technological processes and resources. (Januszewski & Molenda, 2008)
