An educator wrote the following in an editorial for a local news website:
Many of us expect classrooms filled with regimented rows of identical desks where students remain seated throughout the entire class period or school day. We must rethink our classrooms to create a collaborative atmosphere that allows students to work in the most comfortable fashion. We should replace those hard, unforgiving chairs and desks with beanbag chairs, rolling ottomans, gaming seats, and reconfigurable groups of small tables. Students could sit where they want, moving freely to work with other students and adjusting the furniture to suit their moods or projects. This would create engaged students who are excited to learn and more willing to work with each other.
