The Orient Express: an Educational Technology Center

The Orient Express is a joint project between the College of Education and Academic Computing Services at the University of Vermont aimed at developing a media and technology center for teaching and learning.

We don't have a working name (patrons please inquire). We do have a set of rooms, almost totally empty, except for an "Oriental" style carpet on the floor. We are definitely on the fast track, the facility will be up and running September 1. Hence, the Oriental Express.

Summer Express Workshops:

A special workshop is being held June 5 - 8th, 1995, in Waterman 113-T.
