One of their classrooms had six 42" flat panel TVs that were on rolling stands. Attached to each flat panel was a small desktop computer; alternately a laptop could be connected as well. Finally, I recommend that you take a look at some of the non-tech elements of SCIL. From the rolling, folding tables with writeable whiteboard surfaces on top, to glass walls that could be written on, to the portable "huddleboards," the analogue technology was all about collaboration, creative thinking, and problem solving. A vertical team from my school visited SCIL last fall and I shared about it here: http://middleschoolblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/stanford-center-for-innovations-in.html The furniture was all from Steelcase; incredibly well built stuff.
