Research in Learning Technology
Aims & Scope
The Association for Learning Technology (ALT) is a UK-based professional and scholarly association for those with an interest in the use of learning technology. ALT's aims are: representing, supporting, and providing services for our members; facilitating collaboration between practitioners, researchers, and policy makers; spreading good practice in the use of learning technology; raising the profile of research in learning technology; supporting the professionalisation of learning technologists; and contributing to the development of policy. The ALT Journal exists to support these aims.
Typical subjects for submission include:
- theoretical debate on and analysis of the relationship between learning, teaching, design and technology
- evaluative studies of technology use in the teaching and learning process
- studies of the impact of technologies on roles within the educational context
- assessment of the potential of technological advances in education
- analyses of policy and strategy at institutional, national and international levels
- survey papers (which must be timely, up to date and well structured)
The Association is determined to establish the area of learning technology as a discipline in its own right; any submission whose quality and distinctiveness support this ambition will be considered, even if the focus lies slightly outside the boundaries implied in the list above.
