History

The Hong Kong Association for Educational Communications and Technology (HKAECT; http://www.hkaect.org) was established in 1989 to promote for the public benefit of the advancement of educational communications and technology; to advance the professional quality and standards of educational technology and related areas in Hong Kong; and to broaden the goals and influences of the Association to other local and international educational associations and media industries. The very first executive committee members included the founding president Dr. Leo P.K. Yam (Chinese University of Hong Kong), Dr. Jack Chan (Hong Kong Baptist College), Mrs. Camie Young (Hong Kong Baptist College), and Mr. Joseph Leung (Hong Kong Polytechnic). A couple of graduates from the master’s program of educational communications and technology at the Chinese University of Hong Kong also joined as the founding members.


The HKAECT organized the first conference in 1990 with the theme “The Role of Educational Communications and Educational Technology in Year 2000” and invited speakers from the US, China and Taiwan to address and discuss the outlook on educational communications and technology. The 1990 conference theme signified the HKAECT started to go in quest of its identity in the field of educational communications and technology. About 300 researchers, educators and practitioners from local and international tertiary institutions attended the conference. The silver jubilee conference was held at the University of Hong Kong in December 2014 with the theme “New Media, Knowledge Practices and Multiliteracies”. The HKAECT continues its aspirations to be an academic and professional association for collaboration and innovation, providing a platform for individuals and institutions and experts, to come together and build new knowledge in educational communications and technology, to contribute to the improvement of educational practices, and to excel in research and knowledge exchange.
