This report of NATO's Advanced Educational Technology (AET) advisory committee is written to provide a summary as well as a vision of the role of technology in education. Over fifty ARW's (Advanced Research Workshops) and ASI's (Advanced Study Institutes) have provided a forum for hundreds of AET professionals to interact and collaborate. The published books and reports have had an impact on thousands of educational designers and planners. The summary of position and thematic papers that were presented at the final capstone workshop provide a framework for future research, development, and effective implementation of AET systems.
