Handbook of Research for Educational Communications and Technology
A Project of the Association for Educational Communications and Technology
Edited by David H. Jonassen
Introduction
Regardless of your motivation for visiting this site, let me say welcome
to the Handbook of Research for Educational Communications and Technology,
first published in 1996 by Macmillan Publishers. This Handbook was one
of a large series of handbooks that began with the Handbook of Research
on Teaching in the 1970s. Macmillan published many of these handbooks.
For whatever corporate reasons, Macmillan decided a couple of years ago
to no longer publish this handbook series. Because of that decision, handbooks
were not replenished and so the Handbook of Research for Educational Communications
and Technology went out of print. Therefore, copies of it were no longer
available to support graduate seminars and research in the field. That
predicament prompted discussions about how to make the Handbook available.
Another situations prompted discussions about the future of the Handbook.
Published originally in 1996, the Handbook of Research in Educational
Communications and Technology is becoming dated, as happens normally to
any print publication.
A reasonable inference from these facts and conclusions was that a new
edition of the Handbook is needed. As editor of the Handbook, AECT consulted
with me about its future. I have agreed (against my own better judgment)to
continue editorship of the Handbook. We will be introducing some significant
changes in its distribution. The Handbook will be a perquisite of membership
in AECT. That is, any member of AECT will receive the Handbook, not as
a print publication, but online through the AECT website. That will enhance
access to the Handbook and support AECT in the process. Here's how it
will work. The process for distribution and updating has several steps.
- Step one is to scan the Handbook and get a .pdf copy of the chapters
up on the AECT web server to make it immediately available to scholars.
That task has been completed, and you can click on chapters to view
them in Acrobat Reader.
- We are currently converting the files into html files to make the
Handbook more accessible and manipulable. We may also make copies available
on CD-ROM and in print version through Lawrence Erlbaum Associates.
Those options are currently being negotiated.
- Solicit and complete revisions of the existing chapters, edit them,
and get them up on the server. That is underway and so the second edition
will be available early in 2002.
- Decide what additional chapters are needed to complete our conception
of our ever-expanding field. I am dialoguing with the Research and Theory
Board. I anticipate adding more than a dozen new chapters. I will be
soliciting authors to complete those chapters, edit them, and add them
to the Handbook. I hope that the completely updated second edition will
be available in different formats by mid-year, 2002. Print versions
should be available sometime after that.
Why publish the Handbook on AECT's web server? By making it universally
accessible to AECT members, we can hopefully get more practitioners interested
in research. Electronic publication makes it more readily updatable, so
we don't have to wait seven years between editions. However, to me, the
most exciting reason is the instructional potential of an electronic version.
Students can study the Handbook and the research in our field by building
hypertext front-ends, interfaces, concept maps, databases, or other computational
representations that connect and integrate the information in the Handbook.
The possibilities are endless.
So, I hope that you will find the Handbook even more usable and valuable
than the many researchers and students who have had to lug around the
print version. It should certainly be physically easier to use. Once updated,
it will hopefully be more stimulating and valuable to your research pursuits.
Please communicate any suggestions that you may have about how to make
it more valuable (Jonassen@missouri.edu). Best of luck with your research
studies.
