GSA- The Future of the Field

Full Session: Special Session

Short Description

Many technologies we take for granted today were either nonexistent or in their infancy when AECT was founded in 1923. For decades, AECT has led the way by providing research-based guideposts for integrating technology in instructional design and learning environments. As the field continues to develop, what does the future hold? What kinds of questions should we be asking? What should we be researching? In this thought-provoking discussion, panelists will share their vision for the future and explore ways graduate students can make immediate, positive contributions to the field.
