Dear TICL Community,

Welcome to the Technology, Instruction, Cognition, and Learning (TICL) SIG! The purposes of the SIG are to increase understanding of instruction, cognition, and learning and the role technology plays in improving education. The SIG TICL focuses on theoretical foundations, fundamental research, and technical advances at the intersection of four disciplines: Technology, Instruction, Cognition & Learning (TICL).

As technology continues to reshape the landscape of teaching and learning, our community plays a critical role in exploring how innovative tools and methodologies can enhance learning experiences and outcomes. Whether you are a researcher, educator, practitioner, or student, we invite you to engage with our dynamic network of scholars to exchange ideas, collaborate on research, and contribute to meaningful discussions that shape the future of learning technologies.

I also invite and encourage all members and visitors to join or renew their membership with our SIG and participate in our scholarly and social activities. Please follow TICL on X, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

Thank you for being part of our vibrant community. We encourage you to participate in our sessions at AERA, share your work, and connect with peers through our various initiatives. I look forward to seeing you all at the 2025 AERA Annual Meeting in Denver!
