With this project, I hope to provide seating options to help my students succeed while allowing them the opportunity to personalize their learning experience through different seating options. Some students need to be able to wiggle to learn at their best. Wobble chairs, balance balls, and comfy floor chairs allow students to focus in a manner that suits them best, moving just enough to keep them grounded without causing a distraction for their classmates.
Many adults have risers on their desks that allow them to work from a standing position because it keeps them focused. This is along that same thought line. Have you ever felt like you need to take a breather, go for a walk, or stretch your legs? In many class environments, this would cause a distraction for the other students. However, through flexible seating the distraction to classmates is eliminated.
