AJET is the official publication of the Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education (ascilite at http://www.ascilite.org.au/). The journal was published under the title Australian Journal of Educational Technology from 1985 to 2004, after which it was renamed to its current title. In 2008, AJET became an online-only journal, and since that time has prided itself on being an open access publication.
