Hi Sarah
There are some interesting touch screen monitors that run android "out of
the box" so you don't need to connect a computer to them to run stuff. They
can be screwed directly to the wall using a standard monitor/TV mount and
work surprisingly well. Plus they're big - 22" or so so good for access.
Here's a link to an older one http://www.viewsonic.com/us/vsd220.html but
this model is due to be replaced with a shinier one sometime soon.
