Sixth Annual Technology Fair to Take Place During University Conference
The Teaching Learning Technology Roundtable’s (TLTR) Sixth Annual Technology Fair will be taking place from 1:30-5 p.m. Feb. 20 in the SUB Activities Room, the afternoon of University Conference.

The projects that will be displayed include, among others, a look at Truman’s new online co-curricular record system for students, a tour of Truman’s Portfolio Project online submission site, the steps involved in creating “print-on-demand” books to disseminate student/faculty scholarship, plans for a Web site to consolidate listings of films showing on campus each month, Truman’s Speech and Hearing Clinic’s efforts at providing services remotely to Northeast Missouri via a telehealth network, the latest and greatest from Instructional Design Services and Truman’s instructional designer, Diane Richmond, how Pickler Memorial Library’s tech resources can benefit you, ongoing activities of Truman’s Mac User Group and Free Software Club of Kirksville, and a look at a laptop from the “One Laptop Per Child” initiative for children in developing countries.
The prizes for the TruTech Challenge will be awarded in a ceremony at about 4:30 p.m.
