Summary:The development of academic research is always accompanied by the continuous transformation of research methods, which can't be separated from the series of advanced systems science research methods. At present, there are three major problems in the academic debate in the field of Educational Technology, such as the lack of academic ideas, the vague theoretical roots and the lack of reference to related disciplines. Therefore, one needs to actively form and innovate the Educational Technology academic point of view and construct the ecological roots of Educational Technology research theory. On the other hand it also needs actively absorb and innovate from the education and the psychology. In the next period of time, the development of research methods of Educational Technology will pay more attention to the dialogue participatory research, the ecological research, research combining scientism with humanism, practical orientation of reflective education research and localization orientation of the original education research.
