The purpose of this study was to determine the needs of AECT
(Association for Educational Communications and Technology) members. A total
of 590 individuals completed a Web-based 16-question survey after receiving
an e-mail invitation from AECT. This survey was active between October 30 and
November 10, 2000. The survey was categorized into three parts: demographics;
publications; and conference. Resulting data was categorized, coded, and
compiled. The study yielded five major findings. First, more than half of the
respondents are affiliated with higher education. Second, the AECT conference
is important to members with or without a trade show. Third, restructuring
efforts are incomplete. Fourth, respondents noted communications problems in
the organization. Fifth, online services needed to be improved. Improved
communication within the organization is imperative. Findings are presented
in graphs for survey questions three through sixteen. (Author/AEF)
