Our school has moved to a 1-1 model and has focused on students completing all or most assignments on a device. However, the learning environment has not changed to accommodate this model. The students have to sit in traditional desks with attached chairs. Not only do these not offer enough desk space for a device and classroom resources, they are also physically too small for some of the larger students.
Having tables instead of the mostly broken or cracked traditional desks will not only offer more usable workspace, but also be more accommodating for all types of students. Having a set of tables in the classroom will also help create a more collaborative learning environment as they will be able to physically work together at one table rather than having to push traditional desks together.
