  • The room and its technology were  arranged, says Schouest, to create an  environment "where everyone is engaged  with everyone else." And even though  "everyone tends to be looking in different  directions," he points out that it doesn't  matter where a student is looking; he or  she will see a screen. "The information  follows the student, rather than the student  following the information."
  • That meant both instructors  and students would have the ability  to present information and make annotations  on any or all of the displays in  the room, from any of the computers in  the room.
  • Since "students actually are creators  of new knowledge," says Schouest, "we  wanted to give them the ability to control  any one of the screens in the room."
