Hello all.  I am very surprised that no one has not given a link to Eleni to IALLT publications that describe how to set up a Language Center and given options for that.  Most of these publications are now free as well.

    Hi Eleni,

    

    We have 2 labs with five 6-person round tables with 3 Apple laptops on each table. Power and date are built into the tables. The new MacBook Pros don’t have a way to lock them down without buying adaptors for the locks so that’s an extra cost. But this is an ideal setup for collaborative work/language learning. We also use huddleboards which are individual whiteboards that can be hung up on rails around the room. Great for group work! Instructors love, love, love this setup.

        Dear all,

    

        

    

        We would like to set up a new computer lab at my institution and would like to know what other Language Centres are using. What type of hardware/ software do you use? We are thinking of using round tables and trying to work on a set up that will also allow the option of having a clean desk (perhaps using laptops or tablets). Any advice would be appreciated. 

    

        

    

        Many thanks,

    

        Eleni
