Outstanding Publication Award: Book

Outstanding Publication Award: Book

The Culture, Learning, and Technology (CLT) division is composed of AECT members, who are concerned with issues relevant to the intersection of culture, learning, and technology. We define Culture, Learning, and Technology in the following ways:

  • Culture as it relates to and is defined in multiple disciplines and professions with particular emphasis on championing inclusiveness and equity for the entire spectrum of human identification from individual, group, organizational, and behavioral contexts. These contexts include self-identification, group identification (gender, religious, linguistic, national, tribal, class, socioeconomics, etc.) as well as societal identification that may influence one's experience with technology and learning. This also includes participatory culture, youth culture, popular culture, and fandoms.
  • Learning that is situated in varied environments and involves relevant learning theories; and
  •  Technology that demonstrates innovative techniques that support learning environments that illuminate elements of culture and learning.

SELF-NOMINATIONS ARE ALLOWED.
