\"\"<\/a>If you’ve been following me on Twitter<\/a> for any substantial length of time, you’ll know that I’ve been searching for, preparing documents for, and applying to graduate schools for the 2009-10 academic year. Well, after returning from a 4-day field trip in the jungle<\/a> with 66 sixth-graders, I received this email (abridged) from the program director of NYU Steinhardt’s Educational Communication and Technology program<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Dear Adrienne,
\nThe ECT Faculty Admissions Committee is pleased to inform you that you have been accepted into the Fall 2009 Master of Arts class in the Program in Educational Communication and Technology. This is our pre-notification to you. You will receive your official acceptance package from the Steinhardt Office of Graduate Admissions within the next week to 10 days.<\/p>\n

The ECT faculty hope you continue to view the focus of our program — the design of technology-based learning environments, informed by theory in the learning sciences — an excellent match with your professional interests and goals.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I am thrilled! Although my first two schools did not accept me — I was initially very<\/strong> disappointed to receive rejection letters from both Stanford’s LDT program<\/a> and Harvard’s TIE program<\/a> — the idea of going to NYU is quite exciting! They have a very cool research area: C.R.E.A.T.E.<\/a>, which stands for Consortium for Research and Evaluation of Advanced Technologies in Education. And hey – New York! I have never even visited New York, let alone lived there. Big changes ahead…<\/div>\n
