The convention brings together educational researchers and practitioners interested in learning design, performance improvement, and educational uses of technology.

The research labs at CEITR focus on cutting edge topics in education and put researchers in the center of an effective ecosystem of experts, resources, and tools. Over the course of the pandemic, the transformation of educational technology brought to the foreground CEITR focus areas of education communications, access and learning discussions.

“We continue focusing on applied research topics in the field of education to improve the quality of teaching and learning in K-12 as well as higher education,” states Mansureh Kebritchi, Ph.D., University Research Chair of the CEIRT. “Our collaborative research teams investigate issues and challenges for online and in-person education with the goal of resolving the issues and improving learners’ and educators’ experiences. The seven studies presented at AECT are examples of current studies carried out at the center.”

The 2022 AECT presentations address a range of topics about the impact of technology on students’ learning. There are 29 CEITR researchers presenting on eight research topics including:

  • Doctoral Student Connectedness During Different Program Phases;
  • Measuring Effective Online Tutoring: A K-12 Perspective;
  • Importance of Mentoring for Educational Leadership: Impacting Student Learning;
  • The Grit Teaching Strategies and Course Retention of Online Undergraduate Adult Learners;
  • Reshaping Practitioner Higher Education Institutions to Serve Adult Learners: Moving Beyond The COVID-19 Pandemic;
