The Eugene School District is playing host to teachers and administrators from across the west.

They're showing off their computer savvy to help other school districts benefit from technology.

At Howard Elementary school, the future is now.

Teachers and students use smart boards, clickers, computers and ipods for everything from science to reading.

Now they're sharing their experience with 50 educators from districts all over.

Teacher and technology expert Carol Greig Pitetti of Howard Elementary says, "How we integrated technology and infused it into our entire curriculum."

The teachers and principals at the 4j tech seminar are watching, and learning.

Bruce Krieg of the Oregon City School district says, "I'm thrilled, I'm thrilled, very excited wonderful example."

These Oregon City teachers are planning their own technology roll out.
Tech Specialist, Micah Baker, says "This is an incredible example to bring back and I've got many pages to bring back, notes to share."

Howard Elementary started using ipods 4 years ago, but only recently fully integrated technology.

Greig Pitetti says "I'm proud, yeah of our kids and our staff, the fact were able to be a leader and show people look, look what we can do with kids."

And the technology isn't just in the classroom, but in the gym as well where the visiting educators kicked off their shoes and learned how dance dance revolution gets students moving in PE.

Heidi Dahlin of Oregon City says she's been in tech for 13 years and has never seen an application for PE.

She says, "I thought it was a clever use of technology it certainly engaged me."

The teachers say if they find technology this fun. imagine what their students will think.

Krieg says "Look it can be done and be done very successfully."
