A scholarly society at a crossroads: Graduate student membership in the Association for Educational Communications and Technology

• In Event: LDC - A Scholarly Society at a Crossroads: Graduate Student Membership in AECT

Short Description

Chief among AECT’s concerns is the imperative of retaining graduate students as members beyond their graduation, because this population is likely to determine the strength and drive the future of the organization at large. The presentation will examine the results of a study that examined factors influencing graduate students’ decisions of whether or not to maintain membership in AECT. Participants include current and former members of AECT. Data collection methods included surveys and semi-structured interviews.
