Abstract

Educational technology has emerged as a vital component of modern education, facilitating learning through innovative tools and methods. The effectiveness of these tools, however, depends on empirical evidence obtained through robust comparative research methods. This paper examines various comparative research methodologies employed in educational technology research to evaluate the effectiveness and outcomes of different technologies and pedagogical approaches. By reviewing quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods research, this study aims to highlight the strengths and limitations of these methods and suggest best practices for future studies in educational technology.

Keyphrases: comparative research, educational technology, effectiveness, mixed methods, outcomes, qualitative methods, quantitative methods
