Technology Symposium 2001
The first Learning Links symposium provided attendees with the opportunity to share experiences with the use of technology in education. The Keynote speaker, Assistant Vice Chancellor Richard Curry shared with us the news of an upcoming faster and more reliable internet connection for Nevada's Public School Systems.
Mike Connell from the University of Houston spoke about how we can use technology as an efficient and helpful tool.

Meals provided opportunities to learn more from collegues about the different ways technology is being used in educational endeavors. Many fresh and innovative ideas were shared at this year's conference.
Among the presenters were faculty from the University of Nevada - Las Vegas, the University of California - Davis, Arizona State University, and the University of Nevada. Professionals from Nevada's public school system were well represented. Educators from Elko to Clark County came to share ideas and examples. The symposium provided an opportunity to provide presentations catering to all levels of educators.
As always, our master teachers provided great information about how they are using technology in the classroom. Loads of examples on connecting technology to meaningful learning were demonstrated for K-12 application. In all, more than 25 presentations were made over the two day symposium.
