Rush Holt, D-N.J., who is also a member of the Education and Labor Committee. The gadgets ran the gamut from data management software to interactive whiteboards that have touch-screen capabilities. "The goal is to show, not just tell, what's possible using technology in education," said Mary Ann Wolf, a former teacher who now serves as SETDA's executive director.
