Continuing its long history of partnering with the education
community to promote the use of technology and innovation in education,
Sun Microsystems, Inc. opened its annual Worldwide Education and
Research Conference (WWERC) in San Francisco on February 14, 2005.
During the week-long conference, Sun executives, top educators,
technologists and visionaries will discuss their roles in shaping the
future of education.
Support for this year's WWERC comes from industry leaders
including San
Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom and Her Majesty, Queen Noor of Jordan, who
will address how technology is being used in education and its impact
on facilitating collaboration between worldwide education and research
communities.
