The Conference, sponsored by RCET-SW, will be held on the campus of Missouri State University (MSU) in Springfield, MO. This opportunity will not only provide students the chance to demonstrate their completed work, communicate ideas, and gain valuable experience in speaking with individuals; but, will also allow conference attendees to experience real examples of the potential of technology at it’s best.

Only original student creations or projects that have appropriate copyright permissions from original copyright holders will be accepted for exhibition. Projects might include videotaped documentaries, student-written tutorials, problem solving exercises/games, CD-ROM applications, video yearbooks, computer-assisted designs and/or drafting, computer programs, multimedia projects of other applications of technology. Applications will be evaluated according to originality in the use of technology and quality of the project exemplary for the age group being considered.

Wireless internet access will also be available if your exhibit requires it. All other equipment and materials must be provided by student exhibitors.
