Back by Popular Design! Demonstrations of 3D HoloProjection (3DH) technology will again be available during the conference! 3DH is a futuristic technology being introduced into learning environments to create more immersive and realistic learning experiences. The possibilities 3DH holds for education will immediately become clear once you see and experience a live demonstration of an image created and displayed using this technology. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then the 3DH live demonstrations are worth millions!

New Special Focus! For the 2008 CIT, the special focus for Track 1 is Web 2.0 and Its Implication for Community Colleges.

Salt Lake City, Utah. Salt Lake City combines the amenities of a major metropolitan area with the friendliness of a small, western city. Salt Lake City is fast becoming one of America’s foremost destinations. A beautiful, safe, and vibrant city, Salt Lake combines unparalleled access to natural recreation, a bustling economy, dynamic nightlife, remarkable history, warm hospitality, and Utah’s Greatest Snow on Earth.

Exhibiting at CIT. The 2008 CIT will continue the momentum and excitement generated by previous conferences by bringing an even greater number of participants to the inviting and alluring city of Salt Lake. Companies that have exhibited at CIT in previous years know that space in the hall is limited and fills quickly. Be sure to secure your exhibition space early for the 2008 CIT!
