Media Covers Student Laptop Conference

The Bangor Daily News carried an Associated Press report and an online video about the annual Maine Learning Technology Initiative conference held Thursday at, and co-organized by, the University of Maine.

More than 1,000 Maine middle and high school students participated in multiple breakout groups on computer game creation and software applications, and collaborated with live musicians at the Collins Center for the Arts to perform a synchronous concert. The Channel 7 (WVII) 6 p.m. news program also carried a report.
