The Asian Conference on Society, Education and Technology 2016 invites educators and policy makers from around the world to look at the latest trends and issues in technology policy and practice and its role in the private and public sphere. ACSET is a conference about change and transformation, and the conference theme of "Education and Social Justice: Educating for Equality within and across Borders" looks at how technology can transform and change systems and whole societies, whilst it is itself in a state of continuous transformation and change. Harnessed in the right way, it can empower individuals to achieve great things, and make the world a better place, but also raises many worrying ethical questions, including those concerning privacy and surveillance. -Technology and Society: The Social and Societal Impact and Implications of Technology -Technology and Society: Technologies, Societies and Communities -Education and Technology: Teaching, Learning, Technology and Education Support -Education, Technology and Society: Technologies, Knowledge Creation and Access -Technology and Society: Computers, Technology and Society: IT Delivery -Technology and Society: ICT and Security: Questions of Privacy, Governance and Trust -Technology and Society: Green Computing: ICT, Sustainability, Energy and the Environment We hope and expect the 2016 conference themes to inspire a number of research avenues, and look forward to discussing ideas, findings and synergies, in this International Academic Forum.
