The Power of Knowledge” thrives at TechEd01 International Conference and Exposition, a hands-on educational technology conference where intellectual connectivity abounds. TechEd01 is a technology conference featuring hundreds of hours of instruction on how to use computers to enhance teaching and learning.

Taking place in sunny Southern California March 26-29, 2001, TechEd01 is not just another conference. “TechEd provides a more personal and unique feel than any other conference of its kind, where attendees are guaranteed to come away with a renewed enthusiasm for technology and a true validation of their efforts to promote technology on their campus,” says Conference Director William Neece.

Organized by the Community College Foundation, TechEd01 will explore the key technology issues faced by educational institutions throughout the country and provide practical, innovative solutions for use in the 21st Century. The conference will feature keynote presentations by John Morgridge, Chairman of the Board of Cisco Sytems, Inc. and Dr. Stanley Davis, best selling author of The Monster Under the Bed, Future Vision and BLUR.

The event's theme, “The Power of Knowledge” is especially appropriate as information now blurs into the world of education at astonishing speeds. It is fitting to discuss the power of sharing knowledge in the context of educational technology. During the past decade, technology has helped us better understand the learning process and helped us shape our teaching methods to fit that process. It has emerged as a resource from pre-school to university education, forever altering the way we seek and use knowledge. TechEd01 Chairman Dr. William Feddersen, president of Mt. San Antonio College, CA says “TechEd01 plays a vital role in equipping universities, colleges, and schools with a strong base technology awareness and the knowledge needed to tackle the increasing challenges of teaching and learning.”

With more than 120 hands-on computer workshops led by leading technology companies and trainers, TechEd01 provides hands-on opportunities for educators to test-drive a wide variety of technology solutions. The event offers 30 pre-conference workshops, 130 concurrent and vendor sessions, special interest symposiums, dynamic spotlight presenters and the always-popular interactive roundtable and poster sessions. The event is rounded out by more than 180 exhibitors showcasing the most advanced educational software and hardware available today offering participants a greater awareness of the most pioneering classroom and administrative solutions available.
