The Association for Educational Communications and Technology, abbreviated as AECT, is largely considered to be the first adult educational organization.

The ocean covers around 71% of the area of the Earth, making it far larger than the ice caps, lakes, and rivers found on the planet. The remaining 29% of the surface of the Earth is made up of land, which includes both continents and islands.
This is further explained below.
<h3>What are continents?</h3>
Generally, Asia is the region of the Earth's crust that rises above the seas and is comprised of sialic rocks; similarly, Australia, Africa, Europe, the Americas, and Antarctica all qualify as continents. Thirty percent of Earth's surface is taken up by the continents and their associated continental shelf.
In conclusion, The ocean covers around 71% of the surface of the Earth, which makes it far larger than the ice found in the polar regions, lakes, and rivers. The land masses, which include continents and islands, take up the remaining 29% of the surface area of the Earth.

Introduction and summary
The immigration debate in America today is nearly as broken as the country’s immigration system itself. For too many years, the conversation has been predicated on a false dichotomy that says America can either honor its history and traditions as a nation of immigrants1 or live up to its ideals as a nation of laws by enforcing the current immigration system.2 Presented with this choice,3 supporters of immigration—people who recognize the value that immigrants bring to American society, its culture, and its economy, as well as the important role that immigrants play in the nation’s continued prosperity—have traditionally seized the mantle of defending America as a nation of immigrants.4 By doing this, however, rather than challenging the dichotomy itself, supporters have ceded powerful rhetorical ground to immigration restrictionists, who are happy to masquerade as the sole defenders of America as a nation of laws.5 The fundamental problem with this debate is that America is, and has always been, both a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws. Debates over a liberal immigration policy actually predate the start of the nation itself; they infused the drafting of the U.S. Constitution, America’s founding document.6
