At the Universidad EAFIT in Medellín, Colombia, the academic focus is
math and science, with technology playing a key role in this elite
academic institution. By teaming with HP to create an advanced wireless
campus, EAFIT has put technology at the very heart of the learning
experience. Students and professors have been freed to interact in a
wide variety of ways, from linking back to campus during field-work
assignments, to participating in lectures from different points around
campus, to tapping into virtual demonstrations of advanced mathematical
concepts. By experimenting with new ways of learning and collaborating,
EAFIT’s community of educators and students has found that when the
boundaries of technology expand, the connections between people grow.
