Open seminars - New technologies for education

In this article I will describe the seminars that we held at MIREA from September 22-25, 2009. Yes, yes, I know a little bit late in the day, but we had our own reasons and it’s better late than ... than very late :)
Seminars were devoted to new technologies in science and education.
Video recordings, presentations and some comments on them will be posted here. The videos are made as informative and short as possible so as not to get bored, however, to raise interest and tell about the main things.
Level of seminars: for beginners.
And so I ask.
This is our first experience and, in general, the first experience of holding such seminars at MIREA .

We had such an advertising video and such a poster:
