MISSION
As a dynamic international professional organization, the Association
for Educational Communications and Technology promotes the
effective application of technology in the teaching/learning process at
all levels and in all cultures.

Some suggestions:
1.  Could we add "appropriate and" before the word effective?

2.   I don't like the word "dynamic".  Surely we cannot "legislate"
degrees of dynamism.  We strive for our organization to be dynamic, but
that is not for us to say.  Others will determine whether we are or are
not a dynamic organization.

3. Begin immediately with the name of the group.  Don't bury it!
So:

MISSION
The Association for Educational Communications and Technology is an
international professional organization which promotes the
effective application of technology in the teaching/learning process at
all levels and in all cultures.

4.  I am not quite sure about "in all cultures."  Bowers, Innis, McLuhan
and many many others talk about the "bias of technology"  The word
"appropriate" helps alleviate that somewhat.  Technology is not value
neutral according to at least one view, so we don't want to imply that
"our" technology is good for "their" culture.   Philosophically, it is a
sensitive issue, one which we may not want to highlight in our mission
statement.  But I don't know...
