ABSTRACT

This chapter describes the progress made by reformist instructional technology (IT) scholars to direct the field's attention to issues connected to cultural diversity among various stakeholder groups impacted by its research and practice. One of the defining trends with regard to the evolution of educational and communications technologies (ECT) during the current information age—including the past decade—has been their progressively increasing ubiquity and affordability. In 2007 the Definition and Terminology Committee of the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT) presented a revised definition of the concept of educational technology, making alterations to AECT's preexisting definition of IT for the first time since 1994. Around the same time, Minorities in Media (MIM)—a historic, groundbreaking AECT affiliate organization established by Dr. Wesley J. McJulien back in the 1970s as a professional interest and support group for African-American IT scholars—started to experience a resurgence in activity with regard to publishing works addressing culturally diverse stakeholders during the late 2000s.
