Jenny Johnson here. Have to put my 2 cents in. The comments on our mission are getting more to the point now. Educational communication, i.e. methods of instruction, is what we are about. When we changed "Audio-Visual Instruction" to "Communication and Technology" we were reflecting the interest in all ways to educate/communicate including body language, touch, etc. as well as the use of machines. We are concerned with "how" to educate as different from what, when, who or why. Our association members identify with the teaching profession (all levels, all aspects). As has been pointed out before our diversity is an asset. Our mission, therefore, focuses on inclusiveness and diversity with the words "international" and "commmunication". Let's not get bogged down in specifics that will change with the times. Keep the mission general and professional. What statement will still be applicable 25 years from now? 50 years? Jenny.
