Dp. Ely, EDUCATIONAL-TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONALS WORLDWIDE - A COMPASS TO INTERNATIONAL UNDERSTANDING, Educational technology research and development, 44(4), 1996, pp. 105-109
An International Review section within this special international issu
e may seem redundant. This regular department usually features article
s on research and/or development in countries outside of North America
. This ''review,'' however, does not highlight any one country or prog
ram but views the entire world as an appropriate domain for educationa
l technology practitioners. The purpose of this paper is to outline so
me of the many opportunities available for competent educational techn
ology professionals to contribute their knowledge and skills in intern
ational settings beyond the North American borders.
