I found the following image by completing a Creative Commons search for computer classrooms. This is an image that I could potentially show my students of what a computer lab would look like in a college setting. I would ask them to compare/contrast our computer lab to the lab in the image.  I could also ask the students what they like about this lab compared to ours.  Our school district is considering technology update and it would be interesting to see what the students would like to see updated in our lab compared to the adults.
