UTM's Information Technology Services will be hosting the sixth-annual technology showcase on March 6, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., in the UC. This event is open to the public and free of charge. The showcase will include computer vendors, prizes and faculty displays.

The showcase will let members of UTM and surrounding communities exchange ideas and view model examples of the latest industrial technology.

Computer vendors including Microsoft, Apple, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba and Howard Computers will be there to display and demonstrate their best products and showcase the campus's latest technology.

A few featured faculty presenters - who will be selected by Technology Showcase Committee - will also be included. The faculty presenters will have a 45-minute time slot to present ways they use technology in the classroom in the Legislative Chamber.

All presenters will be available to display and demonstrate their materials.

"The Technology Showcase gives us the opportunity to show the campus and the local community the things that our faculty members and departments are doing in and out of the classroom in regard to technology," said Steve Holt, the director of UTM Instructional Technology Center and Web Services.

"We feel that UT Martin is on the cutting edge of learning in higher education, and this event will show you exactly what we are doing."

For more information, contact the Instructional Technology Center at itc@utm.edu or 731-881-7877.
