The Application and Function of Educational Technology in Education and Teaching
(1) is helpful to promote education informatization, promote education reform and implement national curriculum standards.

The application of educational technology in teaching is the inevitable requirement of educational informatization. Educational informatization refers to the process of actively developing and fully applying information technology and information resources in all fields of education and teaching, promoting educational modernization and cultivating talents to meet social needs. The characteristics of educational informatization include multimedia teaching materials, globalization of resources, individualization of teaching, autonomy of learning, collaboration of tasks, virtualization of environment and automation of management. All these characteristics depend on the technological advantages of educational technology.

Educational technology is the catalyst to promote the reform of education and teaching. Both education reform and new curriculum standards emphasize the change of learning methods, advocate students' active participation, willingness to study and diligence, and cultivate students' ability to collect and process information, acquire new knowledge, analyze and solve problems, communicate and cooperate. On the one hand, educational technology can provide various technical support for the realization of this goal, including rich resources, realistic environment and various teaching and learning tools. At the same time, the application of educational technology in teaching will subtly change people's teaching concepts and drive the changes of teaching activities and learning methods.

(2) Educational technology ability is an important part of teachers' professional quality.

The professional quality of teachers is mainly composed of professional knowledge, professional skills and professional attitude. The quality of educational technology refers to keeping pace with the times, following the significance and principles of educational technology, implementing modern education and teaching with the help of modern information technology, and promoting the improvement of teachers' comprehensive quality. It is closely related to teachers' professional knowledge, skills and attitudes, and is an important part of professional knowledge and skills.

(3) It is helpful to optimize the teaching process and cultivate innovative talents.

The effective application of educational technology in teaching helps to promote the maintenance and speed of learning, improve learning attitude and improve students' ability to solve problems by presenting learning materials in various media and optimizing teaching design. At the same time, because the theoretical characteristics and practical activities of educational technology have the advantage of cultivating students' innovative ability, the effective application of educational technology in teaching will also promote the implementation of innovative education and help to cultivate innovative talents.
