Each device is then able to send the info on their screens to the large-screen\u00a0monitor. This allows your group to share documents, images, videos, or websites instantly. Connection cords are located in the &#8220;well&#8221; in the center of the table and each connection cord has a &#8220;puck&#8221; which will glow when it is properly connected. \u00a0Once\u00a0your device\u00a0is connected, you simply tap the puck and the information from your laptop is instantly displayed on the monitor. Being able to share your information so quickly and easily has obvious advantages when you are working on a group project. Each person is able to work individually and immediately share with the rest of the group. Being able to view all the group members&#8217; contributions can really enhance brainstorming and the the creative process.<\/p>\n<p>The adapters which are needed to connect personal devices to the media:scape are available for check out at the circulation desk.
