Educational technology is progressing while science and technology make constant advances. Whenever we discussed the development of science and technology in our country, we often had to go back to thousands of years ago. But when we talked about the development of educational technology, we could only find the history after the Qing dynasty. I think there should be some forms of technology, which promoted the heritage of the culture, finally make the traditional Chinese culture past down from generation to generation. So I hope that my research will expound the elementary connotation of the ancient history of educational technology, by sorting, summarizing and systematic analyzing the science and culture of all times and some relevant historical records. Taking into account the operability and the possibility of penetrate deeply into the study and argument, this research will take the heritage of traditional medicine in ancient China as the main object of study, hope to sum up the specific forms of the study methods in ancient educational technology, as well as its important role in the heritage of traditional medicine in ancient China. The research also tried to explore the research paradigms and strategies of Educational technology in ancient times, hoping to be helpful for the research methods in various scientific fields.Firstly, the research adopted literature analysis method to detail the knowledge, the inheritance form and process in the areas of ancient traditional Chinese medicine. Secondly, it adopted the historical analysis method to sort the historical materials at that time to restore the real situation objectively. Lastly, it adopted case research method to study the areas of ancient traditional Chinese medicine to explore the research strategy of Educational technology. In addition, the study also used some mathematical and statistical method to add up some historical data on specific topics, to reveal the rule of certain historical development.The paper introduced its study scheme, about the background, the methods, the core conception, the research value and the research status. Then, it expounded the technology roadmap of the study, namely the paradigm of educational technology history.According to sorting the relationship between the history of science and technology and the history of Educational technology, this paper put forward the paradigm of educational technology history, by reference to the conventional ways in historical research. Then it described the study foundation for medical educational technology, which is the form and technological shape of ancient medical education; summarized the usual media technical forms(namely graphics and model) in ancient medicine, and made a comprehensive sorting at graphics and model in ancient medicine according to traditional medical discipline system, and made a detailed analysis to its technical features from mass communication’s angle. This paper summarized smart technology(namely learning methods) in traditional medicine, which consisted of poems and actions; made a detailed analysis to the classical example in ethnic minority medicine, Man Tang of Tibetan Medicine and bronze statue of Mongolian Medical.This paper introduced parts of technological forms in ancient Chinese medicine which had important influence on foreign country, like Japan, Korea, ancient Persia and some European countries. The last part is the conclusion, and it put forward two conclusions. One is that there was indeed Educational Technology in the inheritance of ancient traditional medicine; the other initially classified the sequence of ideas of educational technology in ancient traditional medicine. |
