You don't waste any time do you. I really see this as a great tool to use for stations. maybe a digital media station or even something as basic as a WebQuest station. Like you have said, the "cool" factor will only last a little while. A couple logistic questions: Do you have to have it dark in the room to use it? How much room to you have to provide to let everyone have adequate access? Looking forward to seeing what you do. Hey Tom,
