ATED is used to index the Australian Education Index, Education Research Theses, Database of Research on International Education, Blended, Online Learning and Distance Education research bank, Indigenous Education Research Database and the ACER library catalogue and can also be used to consult these databases. The Thesaurus can be used to index documents, whether in print or electronic format, and web sites. It can also be used to organise reading lists and bibliographies.
ATED is available for purchase as a printed document at a cost of $250. It can be ordered from the ACER shop online. Alternatively you can purchase the electronic data set, which can be embedded into a database or catalogue.
