Short Description

Berry College Memorial Library recently transformed their traditional library classroom into a wireless tablet lab equipped with 30 iPads, 2 flat panel displays and a touch screen projector system. This poster describes the planning and design process, and presents the research that most impacted choices about space, technology and design for the new lab. The poster will also address how the changes to technology and space have affected teaching methods and strategies.
