CPods at UHartford
April 22, 2008
So I went to the ACRL New England Annual Conference last Friday, and it was excellent, as usual (more about this in future posts). I ran into many friends, including Nick Wharton, a former colleague now at the University of Hartford, who told me about the cPod stations they recently installed at his library. cPod stands for “collaboration pod,” and they’re pretty nifty: 42 inch monitors with three keyboards and three mice so students can work together collaboratively, easily and comfortably (there’s a good picture at the link).
Given that collaborative learning is so popular among many library users now, this seems like a neat and natural way to let it happen. Kudos!
More as it happens,
Cheryl
