IJET welcomes papers on all aspects of the use of technology to enhance learning. We invite submissions that build on contemporary debates such as: The ways in which digital media interact with learning environments, educational institutions, and educational cultures. The changing nature of knowledge, learning, and pedagogy in the digital age. How new learning opportunities are facilitated through learners engagement in the production of media and in authoring processes previously only available to professionals. How educational practices in local, national and global contexts are being transformed by technical developments and innovative practices such as converging media or new ways of working with technology. The implications for formal education of the increasingly widespread use of media and technology in homes and communities. How Web 2.0, Web 3.0, and semantic web developments are supporting learning and/or teaching in a range of contexts. How individuals and communities are personalising their engagement with media, technology and others. How media and technologies are changing views of knowledge, learning and pedagogy, and raising questions about authorship and ownership.
