I agree with the spirit of your statement, but am not quite sure about the
wording.
"The Association for Educational Communications and Technology is an
international professional organization which promotes research and the
appropriate and effective application of technology in the teaching/learning
process at all levels and on a global scale."  What does "on a global
scale" imply within the context of the sentence?  In your statement, LEVELS
seems to go from
high to low, but SCALE is only uni-directional, namely "global".  Might
not AECT function on a small, local scale?  I think it does at times.

 And now, I guess we would need to define and distinguish between "scale" and
"level".

Yet I do agree completely with the gist of your comments, Juan.
