George Lieux, Technology Integration Specialist at Fort Smith Public Schools in Fort Smith, Arkansas shares a program that was recently implemented in the district.  Several classrooms, from 2nd grade to 12th grade, received a mini-notebook (UMPC) for every student in the classroom.  As the lead technology professional development trainer, George highlights how he trains the teachers virtually to model the use of the laptops and to promote project-based learning.

Resources to follow-up:

• One-to-one ubiquitous computing
• Mini-computers/UMPCs
• Project-based Learning
